“Don’t post anything that may embarrass you later, or end you up in the slammer.”

That’s always good advice.

I'm not surprised by the Secret Service investigating threats made against the President, even by keyboard commandos on a political website. That is to be expected, and anyone posting direct threats should have their world turned inside out by those sworn to protect the President. This absolutely has to be the case.

The real concern I have is that it won't need to be a threat to get the ‘special’ treatment, just (good ol’ fashioned patriotic) dissent, criticism, and disdain.

Joe the Plumber got his world turned inside out for asking a question. Political opponents of Obama have been forced out of the running. Talking heads that don't toe the hopey-changey rainbow world of wonderfulness get singled out by name by this White House.

THAT is what concerns me.

Ultimately, posting on FR is apt to get that attention, not just from the SS but from Homeland Security and the FBI, etc., surely from the IRS. J.R., I hope your finances are impeccable and totally documented.

That is why I don’t post much anymore. It is just hard to say anything nice these days.

Aloha Jim!

Hmmm....I never suggested he ought to be keelhauled. Congress, on the other hand, is still fair game, isn't it?

Besides, on the bright side, there are many on the sinister side who are becoming disillusioned with their choice of leader, so I'll wait till the snakes start biting among themselves.

(Not patiently, though.)

What would any of us do to protect our children from a monster?

The monster Obama is hurting my kids and grandkids. He’s going to make their lives so much less than the one I’ve lived.

Should I just sit on the sideline and allow this economic Marxist pervert to just rape them and rob them of the liberty they are guaranteed?

Not a chance.

I’m pissed off now.

Fill your hands, you sons of bitches.

You’re going down the next time Americans vote.

Which begs the questions:

When posters on DU and Move On were saying things and calling for actions against GWB (a lot worse than anything I’ve seen here), was the SS going after their IP addys?

Where was the SS when Conan O’Brien put the rifle bullseye simulating assassination on GWB on national TV????

Thanks for the heads up JR.
THIS is what the Secret Service and Homeland Security should be looking out for:
A very few years ago at an anti-Iraq war rally on Boston (MA) Commons a rock group was performing a song wherein the lyrics had a refrain with explicit reference to killing President Bush. THIS should be considered truly threatening to the physical safety of the President as THIS can be taken by an observing ‘bordeline’ personality as direct incitement, a tacit approval to assassination.
I was not there and cannot recall exact line. My friend who did came to my place just a few minutes away and he was as visibly upset as could be. He said he went up to the Boston Police there who could clearly hear the repeated lyric and was told it was :free speech”. He then tried to call into the Laura Ingraham show from my phone as it was going live at the hour. He was able to get through to the screener but it was too late into the show to be put on air.

NOT this:

Many of us on FR are veterans of wars against communism .....

I remember that - having retired USAF 36 years ago.
