I just finished the book Silent Coup, and it said that Kissinger was such a jerk at times that Al Haig took him aside and threatened to give him the ol’ one-two. This is the first that I’ave heard of this, but I’ve only read Will, by G. Gordon Liddy, and I can’t even remember the other Nixon administration book that I read, and I didn’t see this in either of them. Are there any other references to this?
Thanks,

So…
wax his glasses = the ol’ one-two = ???
Punch in the face? 
You know…clean his clock!
teehee.

You mean fix his little red wagon?
Well, that or if he threatened to pin his ears back, that would be the answer.
Either one is good for me.

Give him the what for!
Open up a (kosher) can of whup-ass.
Teach him the meaning of a metaphor… the hard way!
In British parliamentary history, I did hear from good sources that Prime Minister Anthony Eden upended a waste-paper basket on the head of a military adviser who told him not to attack Egypt over the Suez Canal. Then - literally - kicked his arse out the door. Eventually the US kicked Eden’s arse (diplomatically speaking).
Gave him the business!
Considering Al Haig practically tried to commandeer the White House when Reagan got shot, I’m not sure I’d take his word for a whole lot…
They were going to go at it hammer and tong?
It’s just that Al was pissed because Henry was getting all of the hot babes.
He was going to ring his bell!

Who wouldn’t be? I know *I * was.

I think the OP means that he was going to send him a plateful of knuckle pie.
Since this one has only garnered jokes, even by the OP, let’s move it to MPSIMS.
