A video surfaces showing Margaret Hassan pleading for her life. It is unlikely that the British government will give in to the demands of the terrorists. Some take heart that no female captives have been killed by the Islamo-fascists thus far in Iraq. I think they have forgotten about the ones in Afghanistan that would kill women on a routine basis.
Glenn Reynolds points out a piece that appeared in the Guardian in which atheists pray to God for a Kerry win; or an assassin. Whichever, they don't care. Strangely, the article has disappeared from cyberspace, but fortunately The Daily Ablution has the proof of existence. It simply astonishes me how there exists those on the Left who are perfectly comfortable with a Saddam in power and the advocating of the assassination of a President but simply can not stand the US implanting Democracy in the Middle East.
Violence and intimidation by the Left does not seem to be restricted to media rhetoric. Just poking around the blogosphere I note reports of intimation of Republican voters in Florida here and here, and violence against Republicans in Arizona. Maybe I've missed it, but I haven't seen reports of Republican's attacking and/or intimidating Democratic voters, which is exactly what the Kerry campaign wants everyone to believe is happening. I'm sure you'll leave links in the comments if I'm wrong about this.
