Secret Service: Retired Bush will be high value terrorist target

http://rawstory.com/news/2007/Secret_Service_Retired_Bush_will_be_0621.html

CNN reported Thursday that the Secret Service expects President Bush to be "a high value terrorist target after he leaves office." They then showed the Secret Service practicing to deal with everything from James Bond-style stealth weapons to roadside IED's in order to meet that challenge.

Retired agent Terry Samway told CNN, "We have the mandate to make sure that whatever they did during their presidency, they are still safe from any of those lingering issues after their presidency."

Even before 9/11, the cost of protection for former presidents was estimated as $24 million a year, and Bush will be guarded by an unprecedented 103 full-time agents starting in January 2009. However, a 1997 law limits the duration of Secret Service protection for former presidents to just 10 years.

"But before they can protect a president or former president," concluded CNN, "the new recruits are drilled in the basics, including target practice at 100 yards and then a sprint to load and fire again -- this time much more up close and personal."

he's a bad, bad, bad man. :mad:

:evilgrin:

He'll be perfectly safe rotting away in prison.

Bush** can have Al Capone's old cell.

The PERFECT solution!

Or, we COULD just HANG HIM FOR TREASON, and be done with it.

this with the proverbial ten foot pole!

:hide:

...we can hire the same company to provide his post-presidential security, that provides security for Walter Reed Hospital. Since he's a cowboy and has Cheney as his VP, I'm sure that he's used to the sound of gunfire at close range.

And I'm also sure he'll agree that its a good idea since he's outsourced damn near everything else the government used to do....

but who the hell cares if he goes - except MAYBE his family - and even they would probably be relieved.

Not that I'm advocating such. I'm against killing anyone. But I don't see the point in spending the $$ and man power to protect him. He sure the hell isn't a symbol of whatever shred of good might adhere to the Office of the President after he's released his (illegal) possession of it.

asshole.

but no one can save him from himself. have another, george:

and i didn't have to read beyond the first sentence to arrive at that conclusion.

dp

if I ever saw him coming, I'd run like hell in the opposite direction. I couldn't stand to even get within viewing distance.

and sealing it off would protect him (and us) just fine.

103 full time agents? Get real.

will be to be a Secret Service Agent assigned to guard * after he retires. Well, maybe the second worst, if Cheney also receives SS protection.

Bush is so protected, he can't take a dump without secret service on top of him, and whenever Jeff Gannon or some other man ho comes to service him, the secret service sends them away as too big a security risk.

should get the standard protection that any former president receives... no more, no less.

And if that is not enough, then shit happens...

just a target. For everything from eggs to more lethal projectiles like "the truth" spoken from the lips of Americans. And, there are certainly plenty of "lingering issues" with this asshole.

Just think. No more "free speech zones" to keep people that don't see his truth away from him. No more 30 mile no fly zones to keep banner towers from cruising his sky. For as much as 103 poor "must have insulted the present admin" lost-career losers that guard him can keep him safe; it's up to him to avoid us now.

Maybe they'll give him the LBJ treatment and keep him drugged.

He'll never sit in a baseball stadium again as G W Bush, maybe Marvin Hagelschmier, but not GWB.

Fuck him.
