Officers Run Background Check On Obama; Placed On Leave


DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. -- Two DeKalb County police officers have been placed on paid administrative leave after an investigation revealed they ran a background check on President Barack Obama.

A representative for the DeKalb County CEO’s office identified the officers as Ryan White and C.M. Route.

Officials said Obama’s name was typed into a computer inside a DeKalb County police car on July 20 and ran through the National Crime Information Center.

The secret service was immediately notified and contacted the DeKalb County Police Department.

A representative said both officers have been with the department less than five years.

2. Did they really think this wasn't monitored?

Every day these idiots hit a new level of STOOPID. And they keep digging.

3. Morons do moronic things, it seems.

These cops don't have enough brains between them to imagine that someone might be monitoring NCIC screenings of the POTUS? Uff da! Fire their asses for sheer stupidity.
