105. There are no good guys...
Edited on Thu Feb-21-08 10:57 PM by Baby Snooks
The head of the security detail, which later became known as the Secret Service, that protected Abraham Lincoln was alleged to have conspired with John Wilkes Booth. Something few people have ever talked about. But something people should think about. Reality is Ronald Reagan was simply lucky. John Hinckley was not a very good shot. If he had been, Ronald Reagan would have been dead. Questions were raised about that as well with regard to how someone with a gun could get that close to a president. The same questions were asked when attempts were made to assassinate Gerald Ford. The answer probably lies in the matter of "crowd control" that is handled by local law enforcement. But which acts at the direction of the Secret Service. The Secret Service probably has never had a local law enforcement agency question its direction before. But thank god one did.

Barack Obama represents a threat to quite a few people. Mainly because no one foresaw the enormous reaction to him by the people.

He probably needs to hire someone to watch the people watching him.
