Oh how he'd love to be *spied* on

"No Meester Bond. I expect you to DIE!"

Not nearly as nefarious as a THRUSH agent.

And I can't help but wonder what wealth of secret information his lame mind thinks that the Secret Service Detail had in them to be coerced by a little poon tang into giving up, anyway? Having a secret clearance does not mean that a person is automatically privy to all secret information retained by our government. After a person is granted a clearance, they also have to have a "need to know" concerning any information that is divulged to them. I would guess that at best, all that that Secret Service Detain was privy to was specific information regarding the travel plans for President Obama. And at best, knowing that information would be useful only to an entity that wanted to do him harm.

Excuse me for being so naive, but I do not think for a second that the Russians have any interest at all in doing away with President Obama. They know only too well what the outcome for them will be if President Obama gets eliminated and is replaced by someone from the right wing of our government, say a Newt Getricher, or a Rick Unsanitorum, or god forbid a Mitt Romney, perish the thought. On the contrary, I can easily imagine the KGB doing everything in it's power to tip our Secret Service guys off to any plot information regarding the longevity of our president's life that they may be aware of.

Again, the words of a Bob Dylan song come to mind.

I've learned to hate the Russians
All through my whole life.
If another war comes,
It's them we must fight.
To hate them and fear them,
To run and to hide.
But you never ask questions
When God's on your side.

Owww, I do love a good sarcastic lyric in the morning!

Upon edit for syntax

it from out of there before he dies from lack of oxygen but I wont get my hopes up.

he has a point. The problem is putting oneself in a position where one's mission is compromised. I think it would have been much more likely for a drug lord to have used the sex workers to strike a blow at our President.

Vhut are za top secret nuclear launch codes zat your President no doubt has entrusted you vith....hmm?

Grassley and representative Steve King they seem determined to prove that the name Iowa is indeed an acronym.I'm convinced you have to try real hard to be that clueless.

Clandestine.
As in, don't call the police after and create a global media feeding frenzy. No exactly conducive, though I suppose the goal could have been to make us look silly.

... because they know that an advance of secret service agents were going to be there
to prep for a Presidential visit in April 2012.

in the US with access to all of our internets....

Time to put Grampa down for his nap, he's thinking it is 1960 again...

Oh, Yeah, election year. never mind.

I agree with customerserviceguy. It doesn't matter that the activity was legal in Colombia. It could well have been a security breach. This transcends elections. I'm inclined to think more in terms of the Chinese, though.

Think about it.

Why then have Republicans allowed our economy to be exported to Red China?

Grassley is an asshat!

But why does Grassley always look like he'd benefit from one of the wonderful products available from Fleet? Pull the plug on Grandma, yeah right. His constituents get what they deserve.

If there were even a possibility of that, it would be pretty irresponsible for a US Senator to talk about it. Election year crap. Or he's even more stupid than previously thought.

Stop stirring the pot of nonsense in an election year. What information would the Russians want from us? They already stole all our secrets decades ago.

chuckie is stuck in the cold war...

do`t tell him we trade with red china.....

And when did Iowa secede from the midwest and join the lunatic fringe?

Should NOT be allowed to be our legislatures in DC, or anywhere else for that matter.

they were allowed to run for office. I mean I had to take such tests for jobs that required a certain minimal intelligence and mental stability before there was even a consideration of hiring me.

Closeted Santoranista?

a secret agent.

and a scandal was the only thing they could get out of the whole deal.
