John Wheeler, Former Bush Aide, Found Murdered In Landfill

Time for some more intrigue out of our nation’s capital:

A man who fought to get the Vietnam Veterans Memorial built and served in two Bush administrations was murdered, Delaware police say.

John P. Wheeler III, 66, was found dead in a Delaware landfill, and his death has been ruled a homicide by Newark, Del., police. They are asking the public for leads in the case.

Wheeler’s body was found in Wilmington on Friday after a disposal truck containing his body made pickups in Newark.

Wheeler, who lived in New Castle, was chairman of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund during the Ronald Reagan era. He also held many high-profile government positions after graduating from West Point in 1966.

I’m sure conspiracy theories are going to go awry on this one, especially with Wheeler’s latest work being to get ROTC back into ivy league colleges.

UPDATE:

Well that didn’t take long. Already appearing in the comments at Gateway Pundit:

I’m sure this is just the start of it too. What’s interesting is the right will frame this as people “joking”. That’s pretty crappy humor to joke about the murder of a decorated veteran like that.
