Ricin in the Senate or No Such Thing as Coincidence

I think a little paranoia is in order. Among other things, Karl Rove once faked the bugging of his office to discredit a political opponent. Scroll down for Karl Rove's greatest political hits.

I don't know if the substance found was really ricin or not, but American extremists should be on the suspect list if the poison was in fact present. As always, read Orcinus to get the latest.
