McGovern finds himself mulling over a 1999 trial in Memphis not far from where King was murdered. In a wrongful death lawsuit initiated by the King family, the 12 jurors, six black and six white, returned after two hours of deliberation with a verdict that Dr. King was killed by a group that included members of agencies of his own government. McGovern concludes:

My hunch is that Obama walks around afraid, and that this helps explain why he feels he has to kowtow to the worst kind of thugs and liars lingering in his own administration – the torturers, the perjurers, and the legerdemain lawyers who can even make waterboarding, which Obama publicly condemned as torture, magically legal...

Why are there so many incidents at the White House involving breach of the security of the president and his family?...

We need a full investigation of the Secret Service – the list of outrages put together by NBC News is voluminous. We also need presidential candidates like Bernie Sanders who are fearless and focus on the hardest issues right at the very beginning.

1. There are many not nice govt peeps

I mean, duh!! History is replete with their warmongering.

Obama was warned. You could see it in his face as soon as the election was over. He has been wading through stuff most of us have, and will never have a clue of. I bet he will be one happy man when he is out of office. Put all that behind him.

Hopefully, Bernie gets better treatment from the SS and our real patriotic friends.

2. No sale

This is not a man who is afraid.

5. Wow. I got a sinking feeling in my tummy when I read this.

I've often wondered the same thing McGovern has written. We know there are really bad people in our government (and the world), and it's feasible that Obama is compelled to do something he may not agree with out of fear of someone hurting him or his family.
