Guy Who Leaked Bush DUI Records In 2000 Arrested For Crininal Threatening While Dressed As Osama bin Ladin And Waving A Toy Rifle

Ah, Democrats. Proud members of the Reality Based Community. Assuming your "reality" is the Ghost City of Carcossa and you think Hastur the Unspeakable is a "pretty good guy."

Thomas J. Connolly, of Scarborough, a prominent defense attorney and 1998 Democratic candidate for governor was charged with criminal threatening this morning following an incident beside Interstate-295.

South Portland police were notified around 9 a.m. that a man wearing a
rubber Osama bin Laden mask was standing on top of a berm along the
highway carrying a sign that said "I Love Tabor," and waving what
appeared to be an assault rifle.

Four South Portland officers and two state troopers converged on the
man. They drew their guns when he did not respond to their demand that
he drop his weapon.

Police said instead he walked toward them dropping plastic hand
grenades. His costume included fake dynamite and bandoliers, police
said.

He eventually did drop the rifle, which turned out to be a toy and was
arrested, at which time the man was identified as Connolly. He was
taken to the Cumberland County Jail.

Jeeze, A couple of towers get knocked down and suddenly people get so PC and hung-up on Musilm terrorists and assault rifles.

Bill Maher was quoted as being "ecstatic" that there's someone in America who's a bigger douchebag than he is.

Thanks to Slublog, whose Halloween costume is far less risible. He's going to be Jim Webb this year, and he's looking for a "very portable" Cambodian midget he can carry around by the ankles.
