Obama leaves WH without press, breaking protocol
Google News ^ | 4/10/10 | AP

Posted on 04/10/2010 6:17:45 PM PDT by mort56

President Barack Obama quietly breached years of protocol on Saturday morning by leaving the White House without the press with him.

About two hours before reporters were supposed to be in position to leave with the president, Obama left the grounds of the White House. Members of the press were told he was attending one of his daughter's soccer games in northwest Washington, D.C.

The White House press corps traditionally travels with the president anywhere he goes, inside and outside the country, to report on the president's activities for the benefit of informing the public and for historical record.

Which one is merely the “pretender” to the throne?

Actually, the lies will probably never leak out. Why? Because the American people don’t want to hear the truth. Bob Dole said in 1996, “We have to start telling the truth to the American people,” but they weren’t listening then either. Or maybe they just disbelieved Bob and Jack (too accommodating souls) and believe the current one who they want so much to “succeed”. But succeed in what?

Obama has taught the discerning that being President is one of the easiest jobs in America, plus one never has to worry about his meal preparation during the day. It’s like living at a permanent resort, but the American people are too uninformed to understand.

Their price is NOT to betray what Edward M. Kennedy always called “the American dream,” EMK meant “socialism”.

Well, I guess the old Roman Hruska line could be adjusted to says that “even drug users need representation too.”

My hope this Sunday is that he somehow has had an epiphany and resigned in private, wandering off to never be heard from or seen again. One can only hope.

An ally is generally considered another group or force in the military sense of the word. Separate from ones own.

So you posts seem irrelevant not only to my tagline and my dad’s sentiments, but to this thread in general.

re: “It is carried by a military officer who must undergo the nation’s most rigorous security background check - the “Yankee White”.”

Too bad we have a POTUS who could not have passed any level of security background check....

Barry had to have had memebers of the USSS with him, didn't he?

Anyone know?

And if the USSS was with Barry, what are they obliged to do if they see the president breaking the law?

I wonder if the SS is obligated to participate in any acts of treason or sedition Obama may be committing.

not that the Mediascum can be relied upon to do it, but it is critically important to investigate every aspect of this matter -— where did Obozo really go and who was with him? Did he have USSS protection and was the officer with the “nuclear football” present at all times?

Is Obambi really slipping off to watch a girls’ soccer game or for something else? Even if the soccer game is the pretext, perhaps he only showed up there for a brief period to give him cover for doing something else....

Who cares. The less I see him on TV, hear him on radio, or see him on the bottom of the bird cage, the better.
