The unkindest cut.

BETHLEHEM, Pa. (AP) -- An elderly man who wrote in a letter to the editor about Saddam Hussein's execution that "they hanged the wrong man" got a visit from Secret Service agents concerned he was threatening President Bush.

The letter by Dan Tilli, 81, was published in Monday's edition of The Express-Times of Easton, Pa. It ended with the line, "I still believe they hanged the wrong man."...

The agents almost immediately decided Tilli was not a threat, [Special Agent Bob] Slama said

"We have no further interest in Dan," he said.

Bummer.
