The Bushes Hit a Few Bumps in the Road



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


A White House staffer was badly beaten and robbed during the president's stopover in Hawaii on the way back from Asia. Gregg Pitts, acting director of the White House Travel Office, suffered a broken nose in the Monday night mugging on a Honolulu street and was left behind in a hospital yesterday while the rest of the presidential entourage continued back to D.C.

Then, yesterday morning, as POTUS headed to Hickam Air Force Base on Oahu, three local police officers accompanying the motorcade crashed their motorcycles on a rain-slicked street. Two officers were hospitalized, White House officials said -- one with broken bones, the other with a neck injury.

And in another hemisphere altogether . . . ABC News reported yesterday that elder-by-seconds twin Barbara joined Panama-based sister Jenna on a trouble-scarred trip to Argentina. ABC, citing "law enforcement reports" it obtained, said someone stole a purse and cellphone from Barbara at a Buenos Aires restaurant -- right under the noses of her Secret Service agents. Also, an agent accompanying them was mugged during his off-hours. (Unclear when the reported two-week trip took place; Barbara was photographed at the Yale-Princeton game just 10 days ago.) The White House would not comment on the reports.

1. I think Karma owes them a bit more than that

2. Security following * in Hawaii crash both severly injured. 1 in critical

condition. Don't know if it's Karma or not but all these stories occuring at the same time is tragic.

4. Does that me we hit a trifecta?

Hey Secret Service? Anybody home?

So much for protecting us from terra. They can't even protect themselves.

6. Makes you wonder doesn't it?

The Secret Service is not generally this sloppy, not in my memory anyway. :tinfoilhat:

9. Actually, this is the anniversary

of their worst failure. The assassination of John F. Kennedy.

10. Well, I wonder about that too...n/t

3. Welcome to the real world, you spoiled brat

Life's a bitch, ain't it?

5. I've often wondered how gwb and the cabal can move so unscathed through a world

in which the enormous majority of people have such rage and contempt for them.

Vast amounts of money and power can protect them, of course, however, the sheer massive numbers of the world's population that despises them, has got to be the highest directed toward any political figures in history.

It seems that fury is beginning to show itself at the periphery of their circle. MKJ
