Why not just give it to the secret service or an aide?

Nothing like striking a little fear in the media, just to make sure they never forget who they are covering.

Of course, if the SS arrested any black, female reporter trying to give W a letter?

The MSM would have a different take, don't you think?

A quote...


Lee said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press that she wanted to hand Obama a letter urging him “to take a stand for traditional marriage.”

She said she asked a Secret Service agent to give the president her letter, but he refused and referred her to a White House staffer. Lee said she refused to give the staffer the letter.


Of course, they had to make sure Obama never received that kind of a letter... LOL...

What is this world coming to when one of the fawning news media can't worship 0bama, most merciful with an offering of paper?

Perhaps it was a news story she had written and wanted to get his O.K. on it.

People like this have no understanding why they get into so much trouble when they try to do things their way.

Actually, she was urging Obama to support traditional marriage — which is probably the *reason* why they carried her away... LOL...

Koo-koo.

I like the guy who obviously wanted nothing to do with helping carry her, so he picks up the little briefcase to look like he's doing something.

She wasn’t even arrested, just carried away, according to the video.

Well, I’ll go with the Secret Service on this one. Were they to just assume the letter didn’t contain any anthrax, for instance? As much as I despise Nobama, this wasn’t his call. His security did their job, as we’d expect them to do for any President.

She’s African American, which means that the MSM won’t label her as a right-wing racist crackpot as usual.

Or they may do so anyways, and just not show her photo....

Drag me a kickin’ from this aeroplane
In no time, you see I’m insane
Lonely, crazed and gone, I'm a goin' home
Obambi just needs this here letter

I don't care ‘bout funny looks I gotta fend
Got to get back to Obambi again
Lonely, crazed and gone, I'm a goin' home
Obambi just needs this here letter

Well I wrote him a letter
Told him I couldn't live without him no more
Listen mister, I’m Brenda Lee!
I gotta get back to Obambi once more, anyway, Hey!

Drag me a kickin’ from this aeroplane
Ain't got time to try to explain
Lonely, crazed and gone, I'm a goin' home
Obambi just needs this here letter

I would go home, too, except I have to stay after school.

I don’t know about the Boxtops. I’m sticking with the Cocker version. I can’t hear sound very well on this computer, (Drat—couldn’t hear screams from the vid) so, sadly,no musical accompaniment.

“Emails are plucked from yahoo; phones lines are tapped and threats continue. One rejects all shots including Novocain at the dentist when one has been poisoned and one’s life has been threatened. Last week a dentist used a ray gun to dry a filling; it sent shockwaves through the body. Now there are headaches and pains that shoot from one side of the head to the other from time to time. It is the hope of some cowardly person or persons that these things will bring about a retreat. Not so! Another call is made to the Justice Department and a formal complaint will be written to President Bush asking for an investigation into the abuse by powerful people who have the means to make these things happen.”

ROTFLOL! What was she doing on the plane in the first place?

The Bird’s Eye View

by Rev. Brenda Lee

Happy Mother’s Day-There is no greater and holier job than that of a Mother. She is the first teacher of her children and teaches them godly values that carry them through their earthly life and back to heaven. She cares for them and puts them before her needs. She teaches them good manners and insists that they use them. She nurtures them when they are sick. When they make mistakes, she corrects them and sees to it that they own up to them. When it is time to release them, she gently shows them the door, but is there to advice when needed.

Miss California was striped of her title as Miss California when she was asked her views on same sex marriages and she stated that in her view marriage was between a man and a woman. The newspapers reported the truth at first. They changed the story and said that she lost the title because she had brest implants.

At some point the American public will realize that gays are taking over and that there is no freedom of speech for heterosexuals or Christians.

Gays represent a small percentage of the population, but they are powerful church leaders, politicians, judges, and movie executives. For the most part they are white males who have sexed themselves out on perverted sex and they are never satisfied. They will keep pushing for more and more sexual freedom (which include sex with children) in search of sexual gratification until they lead America to destruction unless they are stopped.

Gays have always existed; they have been an acceptable part of society because they kept their sex life private.

Gays accepted the fact that they were born gay, suffered sexual abuse or their parents wanted a child of the opposite sex. In the cause of sexual abuse, some children got through the painful experience by giving into the feelings that were forced through years of abuse and think that they are gay. Regards of how things happened, compassionate people have tried to understand. But the world has change and evil people such as Popes, cardinals, bishops, judges, and politicians have covered perverts who have preyed on children.

Last week a priest, who was molested by a priest at the age of 15 was forced out of the priesthood when he dared to speak to Church officials concerning his ordeal. He is asking that other priests speak out who have been molested.

Several months ago, the practice of priests sleeping with Protestant virgins before their marriage to Catholic males surfaced. A Catholic male and his would be bride went to speak to the priest concerning their marriage. The priest stated that he would have to try her out before the marriage. The girl told her mother. The marriage took place some months later.

President Barak Obama will be naming a Supreme Court judge in the near future. It is of the up most importance that he does not appoint a liberal judge. Christians and moralists must ask that he appoints a GOD Fearing judge to the post.

FWIW:

http://www.macon.com/149/story/730342.html

Herbert Dennard, the longtime publisher for the Georgia Informer, which recently changed its name to the Informer, said Lee is from the Macon area but now lives in California. She writes a column for the Informer, a monthly newspaper that focuses on the black community.

“She writes a lot of religious things and gives opinions on things from abortion to gay marriage,” Dennard said.

“She’s a very good person,” Dennard said. “She has very strong views on some moral issues. And I had talked to her and she said she wanted to try to interview the president of the United States. I said, ‘if you can do it, fine.’ ”

Dennard said Lee is “not a danger to anybody; she just has some strong views.”

snip

In the wake of the meeting, chatter among the chattering classes Friday was that, perhaps, the meeting had violated antitrust laws. Could these publishers, in other words, be colluding to set prices? Or could they have been discussing how best to synchronize their collective shift to a so-called pay-wall model?
