hosepipe,
I’ve thought the same thing, BUT ya have to know they would wait til the punks numbers finally tank when this economy fails to come back under his “leadership”.
I figure shortly before the 2012 elections.
And I’m surprised he doesn’t have some govt. thugs come visit all of us who even bring up the subject.
OH wait, there’s a knock at my door now.

With any luck at all, the fawning media types will be thrown on the funeral pyre to accompany the One into the afterworld.

If you think about it, the democrats have done this before ... think JFK. Say some white guy sends Zero to meet his virgins and lives thru the arrest. As soon as he says that he is a Republican who listens to Rush, he will die of unexplained causes. Think Jack Ruby here. And, as you say, the democrats get a two-fer; case closed and Zero gone.

These people getting arrested are all cranks and crackpots. As a former police officer and federal investigator, I’m certain that the Secret Service has already advised Obama that the one to worry about is the one who keeps his intent secret and he/she will not be known until they are discovered in an attempt, or, are actually successful in their attempt.

Look at history - Czolgoz, Oswald, Hinckley, Sarah Jane Moore. They either actually did it, or came very close to succeeding because they spoke to nobody of their specific intent.

As Kennedy said in Ft. Worth on the morning of November 22, “If someone wants to shoot me from the roof of a building there is nothing I can do to prevent it.”

Oh really? And here I thought I was being original. I am trying to find terms that mask my inner thoughts of the the person in question.

Thanks for looking that up.
I wonder how often the threats on internet chats and forums are followed up? That could keep the SS very busy.
I might look into applying for a job searching for those threats.............

Exactly... nutjobs are common. But Obama is the king.The media was probably itching to paint him with a Christian right brush.

Kennedy actually said that? Do you think Kennedy was speaking cryptically about “taking a bullet for the team” then?

Gotta be the worst part of the job. Constantly wondering when you’re gonna take one. Personally, I find anonymity to be the height of freedom.

I’m not certain of the context, but I believe it was in response to a comment Jackie had made about the S.S. suggesting that the removable bubble top of the limo be bolted on.
