Two U.S. Secret Service agents on Thursday interviewed Councilman Paul Smith, one day after the Sterling Heights City Council voted 6-1 to ask the freshman councilman to resign over derogatory statements he made at a Tea Party rally in 2009 against President Barack Obama and other political figures. Smith said he wont resign.

Smith said someone told the federal agents he was caught on tape with a group of Tea Party protesters. He had two signs that read: He (Obama) changed America into Uganda, S..t on a stick and another saying One more day is one too many.
He carried a large sign with a picture of former House speaker Nancy Pelosi with bullet holes in her face and a hammer and sickle, symbols of the Communist Party. The verbiage on the sign said, Extreme left bitch, We wont die soon enough, and She hates America, God, You and Capitalism.
Former Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm was depicted in a hangmans noose. Smith called the three (Obama, Pelosi and Granholm) communists, and said they are worse than any enemy America ever fought against.

(23,973 posts)I knew a person that got a visit from the FBI, not the Secret Service, who are a little more, shall we say, 'intense' than FBI agents, over a violation of federal labor law concerning reserve military employees getting called up for active duty.
Anyhoo, after the interview by the FBI, the cocky bastard that thought they had the world by the balls before the interview had turned pasty white, was shaking and wobbly on their feet.
I'm fairly certain that the idiot who got the visit from the Secret Service shat himself.
Those guys from the S.S. do not have a sense of humor whatsoever, they play hardball, and play to win.

The video shows it but the copy, for some reason, doesn't mention it.
