10. Tell Fox to stop inciting violence and a lot of people will need less
official protection.

12. I'm upset FoxNews receives 1st amendment protection.
no. not really. but a good response to their assholiness. You know who determines threat? THE FUCKING SECRET SERVICE.

They obviously have enough information to deem it wise to give him protection so shut the fuck up assholes.

14. Poor babies.. the hitman they hired can't get to him?
Edited on Fri Aug-07-09 02:43 PM by SoCalDem
*Fact: most hitmen end up being undercover cops
*Fact: hitmen are on the endangered list








*most likely is false, since I made it up..but it sounded true:)

17. The President Can Designate Protection for His Staff Via Executive Order
Rahm and Gibbsy recieve it already. I see no reason why Axe wouldn't recieve it either.

Many times the Secret Service are the ones to suggest to the President that someone recieve protection rather than the other way around as they investigate and determine the level of the threat.
