A friend told me his Blackwater friend was assigned to the inauguration |
|
to protect Obama, but that the Blackwater guy didn't really want theh job because he felt it was too dangerous an assignment.
Why can't the Secret Service to the job?
Has anyone else heard that Eric Prince's right-wing evangelical mercenary army was being tasked to protect the president?

4. Third-hand information |
|
is not very reliable. A friend told a friend that someone said...
I cannot imagine that the Secret Service would allow any such nonsense.
Sounds like bullshit to me...lots of those mercenary guys are a little full of themselves and can tend toward bragadoccio. Or maybe the Blackwater guy is like one of the many fake Navy Seals out there. That's my best guess.
