In Which Glenn Reynolds Advocates Assassinating a Head of State

Apparently not content to call for the killing of Iranian scientists, Putz believes that "somebody" should "bump off" Robert Mugabe. If Mugabe -- a bad, bad man -- is assassinated tomorrow, shall we hold Glenn Reynolds responsible? I say no, but Putz's past writing says yes.

WONDER WHEN TOM DASCHLE WILL WEIGH IN ON THIS THREAT:

After a tense 30-minute segment finished taping at WDSU's studios in New Orleans, the two candidates were preparing to leave. According to witnesses, Landrieu looked over her shoulder and told Terrell, "This is your last campaign."

A stunned Terrell replied, "She threatened me."

No other words passed between the two New Orleans women, but moderator Alec Gifford said Landrieu appeared peeved.

"She just kind of stalked out of the studio," Gifford said.

I think that if somebody tries to assassinate Terrell, it will be Landrieu's fault. And if somebody tries to assassinate George Bush, it will be because of all the claims that he's a "boy emperor" who was never elected, and seized power in a "coup."

Well, well. If verbal cues are, as Putz believes, akin to pulling the trigger, Mo Dowd is pretty damn lucky that Bush hasn't been, as Putz puts it, bumped off.
