In the closing weeks of the 2012 campaign, a Secret Service agent was on the ground in a key swing state to coordinate security ahead of several campaign stops by the President. The agent, who was married, made advances towards a Romney campaign staff member.

InsideSources spoke with two staffers who witnessed the events in question. Each spoke on condition of anonymity and independently confirmed the details.

In one particular incident at a bar in late October 2012, the Secret Service agent, who had a number of drinks during the meeting, unprompted and in an apparent attempt to impress one of the staffers, began providing details of President Obama’s schedule. The information included times and locations of the President’s events in the final days of the election. The President’s campaign would not release these details of the President’s schedule publicly until several days later.

1. You can't work for the SS if you do drugs

Why oh why are they allowed to drink? They should not be able to hire ANY drinkers. Even on their days off, just like us pot smokers, make them take a test when returning to work.

2. A SS agent should not only be fired for that, but should serve significant prison time.

This is disgusting and shocking.

5. He should. Preferably with some waterboarding to make sure he understands the seriousness of matters

Good god.

At least the head has stepped down. i wonder if somebody in SS is being paid to screw things up.

3. Did the Romney campaign report it at the time?

Remember the great delusions about Pennsylvania in the closing days of the campaign? Remember how they were sure they'd win Michigan, Minnesota in those closing days.

Oh, it is to laugh.

4. No but they also didn't use the info according to the anonymous source

Hey the Romney campaign may have not thought it was not important because they were just SO SURE they were going to win anyway.

From the link - Wonkette has some funny a** writers

The article is also careful to point out that Romney staffers were skeptical of the schedule, although it turned out to be accurate, and that it was “not widely circulated” and didn’t impact Romney strategy a single bit, since the election was just days away anyway. You might bring illicit intelligence to a Romney staffer, but they will not make use of such tainted information, sir, no they will not. Good day, sir. I said GOOD DAY.
