| Zimbobwe's Mugabe threatens to expel US ambassador |
| 2008-05-25 |
| Zimbobwe's President Robert Mugabe is threatening to expel the U.S. ambassador, criticizing him for advice he has given Mugabe's opponent in a presidential runoff. Mugabe says Ambassador James McGee publicly urged opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai to return to Zimbabwe to lead his embattled supporters. Tsvangirai returned Saturday after more than six weeks abroad. Mugabe says that if McGee continues offering advice to Tsvangirai, he will kick McGee out of the country. Mugabe, speaking Sunday at the formal launch of his election campaign, also ridiculed claims the opposition leader was the target of a military assassination plot. |

| #1 Zimbob has no taste for Ambassador McGee? Must be something to do with McGee's time in Vietnam in the USAF where he earned three Distinguished Flying Crosses fighting the communists. Send him on back to the States Zimbob. Folks here are looking for a good African American to be our next president. |
