War on golf: Obama is escorted by SWAT team and two snipers..(shortened)
The Daily Mail ^ | 10 August 2014 | MailOnline Reporter

As conflict continued in Iraq, President Barack Obama waged a different kind of war during his vacation at Martha's Vineyard - on the golf course.

Obama was escorted to the Farm Neck Golf Club, in Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts, by a huge motorcade, which included a SWAT team and two snipers who peered out of an open trunk.

Sporting a United States Secret Service baseball cap, Obama seemed reasonably relaxed despite the hefty protection, laughing and chatting with his golfing buddies in between holes. Obama fled Washington for his family's familiar vacation spot yesterday for a two-week summer break.

I had forgotten about the DC sniper. Still, when I read that 2 snipers were peering out of an open trunk my mind’s eye saw 2 Barney Fifes with 2 high powered rifles in such a small space.
(Not an opinion of the SS, just a reaction to the way it was written)

It is all for show. As he does our military when around them, they are probably are not allowed ammo in his vicinity in fear of one of them doing just that.

He doesn’t need SWAT teams and snipers. Just pull old slow Joe Biden out of the trunk. That will keep all the riff raff away.

Do the people of Martha’s Vineyard hate him THAT much?

The British call a car trunk a “boot”.

Maybe the snipers were actually in a large steamer trunk.

According to our tour guide; there was no one named Martha, and there are no vineyards there; either!

if you’ve read the relevant stories you know ammo has not been allowed in military firearms around him.

Liberals are such hypocrites. Bill Clinton was right. There was a time when Obama would have been fetching coffee. If he wasn’t president he wouldn’t be allowed on Martha’s Vineyard.

I doubt they carry loaded weapons. They can’t be trusted that much.

When Reagan was shot the SS never fired a shot. Same thing when Squeaky took a shot at Ford.

Wonder if she's sharing him with Obama.

“I had no idea she swung that way”

Hillary gave her some advice: “What difference does it make!?”
