The article on MSNBC says the guy also threatened the president. That’s not headline worthy, apparently.

“Another tipster said Geisel also threatened President Bush.”

Sounds like attempted Arkancide.

The MSM bias makes me sick. They use this to paint Obama as a victim.

Training class for bail bondsmen? Sounds like something Dale Gribble would do.

***Another tipster said Geisel also threatened President Bush.***

That's just a footnote to the story. To a lib threatening the President is just normal behavior.

A young white southern male... it’s just too perfect. You have to understand the media. It fits to well their ploy. They can’t care about the fact that he is a moonbat who threatened also Bush.

Raymond Hunter Geisel

Related to Dr. Seuss (Theodor Geisel), I wonder?

This Geisel person will no doubt claim to be an ex-Navy SEAL and Blackwater operative who does double-secret contract work for the CIA. Huffpos and Dupers will believe every word of it.

The Secret Police will be at your door later this evening. Please prepare for a two week stay in a “RightThink” re-education camp...

I heard the cbs radio news report about this and the point that he also threatened Pres. Bush was like an afterthought.
C - crap
B - broadcasting
S - station
Of course it was to them.

How difficult can bail bondsman training really be?
