Willis replaced references to President Kennedy with Bush's name.<br><br>"Even though I don't like the president and I don't like his policies ... I don't want to hurt anybody," Willis said. "I'm very peaceable. I don't desire any conflict or anything."<br><br>A Secret Service agent who seized Willis's computer on March 7 declined to discuss the case.<br><br>"We don't comment on any ongoing investigations," Jamie Cousins said.<br><br>Willis said he was contacted by Cousins early this month.<br><br>"He said he needed to talk to me because I threatened the president," Willis said. "At the time I didn't think I was threatening the president. It's just lyrics to a song."<br><br>Willis met Cousins at the college on March 7 and signed papers agreeing to turn over his computer.<br><br>Dan Lunsford, president of Mars Hill College, said he had little information about the case.<br><br>"The only thing I would be able to say is we certainly will look into the case and we will cooperate with law enforcement officials," he said. "But we certainly want to protect our students' rights as well."<br><br>Copyright 2006 by The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
