Secret Service probing Facebook poll on Obama

http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2009-09-28-facebook-threat_N.htm?csp=24&RM_Exclude=Juno


WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Secret Service is investigating an online survey that asked whether people thought President Obama should be assassinated, officials said Monday.

The poll, posted Saturday on Facebook, was taken off the popular social networking site quickly after company officials were alerted to its existence. But, like any threat against the president, Secret Service agents are taking no chances.

1. All the people who voted "yes" are screwed.

Hey Freepers, here's your paranoid thought of the day:

What if the Secret Service put that poll up on Facebook!

Now they've got your contact information and know who all of your friends are!

3. And rightly so.

the kind of thing that will send them into their holes.

8. I love the image at the bottom of your post. What is it from?

[JuniperLea]

9. purplemoon.com

Not my site, nor my artwork... but I'm going to buy the sticker and put it on my car!

This is really huge... because I have never, ever, put a sticker on any of the 8 cars I've owned in all of my life!

:)

If you like the peace sign, you are going to love 85% of what's offered at that site! Beautiful stuff! I am pretty sure they will forgive me for lifting that image... I get asked about it all the time, and I point people back to where I found it;)

It's also found at gypsyrose.com... another of my fav sites.

[BrklynLiberal]

15. Thank you so very much. I am going there now...

[BrklynLiberal]

17. OMIGAWD!!! I don't know where to begin!!

Have you ever checked out www.northernsun.com ? they also have some great stuff....

[JuniperLea]

19. Oh dear...

I'm doomed!

:rofl:

[BrklynLiberal]

20. Me too! there is so much great stuff on those sites..

I am in trouble......

[Phx_Dem]

22. I feel ya. I've never put a bumper sticker on any car I've ever

owned either until Obama08! I put a Dean bumper stick on in 2004, but I couldn't handle it and took it off 5 minutes later. I absolutely LOVE Howard Dean but I just couldn't stand having a sticker on my car. For some reason, it all changed with Obama. I love my sticker, and it's still on my car!

[JuniperLea]

25. I have one...

I've seriously contemplated putting it on my car... I might. My car will be safe in my neighborhood, at least:)

[BrklynLiberal]

29. Well...... I cannot say the same...ROTFLMAO!

[BrklynLiberal]

24. Have you seen this page??

http://www.purplemoon.com/pets/buskitties.html

[JuniperLea]

27. No!

Oh, I knew I liked those people!

[BrklynLiberal]

28. They truly are amazing...those kitties are all adorable...

Of course they are not kittens any more...but what a joy to see those pictures.

BTW..I am still browsing...now looking at the fantastic dichroic glass stuff!!

This is all your fault!! :D

[JuniperLea]

33. I take full responsibility!

:rofl:

[BrklynLiberal]

6. Hopefully, the poster, and all who voted yes will get a visit from the men in black....

AND get their taxes audited going back 30 years.......

10. I think I'll post this link

on my Facebook page. I don't have any wingnut 'friends' but I'm sure the rest of my contacts would be interested in this.

[monmouth]

12. CNN has this story also and I connected it to my FB page..Haha,

if the cousins end up in jail, so???? Little Repug creeps.

[BREMPRO]

11. HA! good news. Yes voters just made the watch list... n/t
