"When our law punishes words, we must examine the surrounding circumstances to discern the significance of those words’ utterance, but must not distort or embellish their plain meaning so that the law may reach them," said the 2-1 ruling in which Chief Judge Alex Kozinski (Reagan) joined but Judge Kim McLane Wardlaw (Clinton) dissented.

The court may also have considered that presidential assassins are always "progressives."

    When you want to slap a conspiracy charge on someone, you must prove that the conspirator had good reason to believe someone would carry out the plan for him.

    Stupid public bluster does not a conspiracy make.
