A serious warning to Obama's team: Tighten up security

[burythehatchet]

So many great Democratic leaders have been killed for political purposes.

A fellow Democrat has put the idea of killing you in the public domain. This fellow Democrat implied that she might pull out a victory if Barack is killed.

There are supporters of this fellow Democrat whose sanity can be questioned. This fellow Democrat is supported by the Republican side. The Republicans have all the information they would need from their spying programs. They have killed our leaders before and they will try again.

There is no way to run for president and not be exposed, but PLEASE increase your security staff. PLEASE do anything that will reduce the chance of a successful hit. PLEASE!

I sincerely believe that in her heart, Hillary Clinton WANTS IT TO HAPPEN!

5. You also should see a doctor

Perhaps not as urgently as the OP, but, you still need help.

16. Anyone still supporting Hillary should see a psychiatrist. ASAP.

2. they've been on it for awhile - here is a great read:

His first and most-lasting impression? The sharpshooters on the rooftops that he spotted around the area where Obama was speaking.

<snip>
Apparently, it's still OK in this country to many people to joke about shooting and killing a black politician.

And yet, Obama stands before us, offering himself to us.

Think about the stadiums, 15,000, 30,000, 50,000, 75,000 people. And how many in Oregon this week?

There's no way to get them all through metal detectors. We've seen reports of the Secret Service getting a certain percentage of people close to the stage through screening with metal detectors, but no way they can get everybody through.

And yet, Obama stands before us, a humbling act of courage day after day.

3. I wondered if they could construct a plexiglass enclosure like the popemobile

but realized he would refuse to use it.

4. Your insane. Get to the doctor

Seriously, your post scared me.
Get some medication.

12. why would it scare you? This may be the ray of hope for Camp Hopeless.

15. So you think people crazy who worry about assignation?

You would have thought that about JFK RFK MLK John Lennon, Malcolm X, George Wallace, Medgar Evers?
You should know that there are many crazy people out there and many of them have guns and are violent, just waiting for a chance to go down in history.
This is not a loving and caring world we live in and Obama should be really carefull.

6. Quit the overblown drama.

7. Your claims are bullshit.

She just has a lot on her mind.

[burythehatchet]

10. I see no claims, only observations. Can you be more specific?

[CreekDog]

9. can we borrow that pope mobile?

i'm a nervous nellie about it anyway.

11. With All Due Sarcasm, This Really Helps

More reprehensible than the suggestion itself-if that is possible-is it's repetition, with speculation about who will likely do it.

13. The Illogical Extension Of This Horror

Should it come to pass, it the inevitable first assessment that "Hillary (and her camp of loonies) did it." And the ensuing, perpetual, inescapable conspiracy theories to that effect.

14. I evident that the DC establishment is scared shitless of

an extremely popular "Liberal" candidate with a populist message heading full speed to the White House. I am afraid that Clinton speaks of what she many many other conservative DC insiders like her are hoping for, a magic bullet to dispel their worries. Apparently they are to the point of desperation where it becomes necessary to muse openly about the "possibility". Coming on the heels of the Huckabee statement during his speech to the NRA, I do not regard her comments as "misspeaking" (consider that she has raised the issue on at least three separate occasions in defending her decision to remain in the race), rather she was doing nothing short of attempting to "plant a seed" in the mind of some nutcase out there who will take the ball and run with it, bringing an end to Hillary's "Obama problem", and thwarting the danger of a Liberal challenge to the conservative DC establishment.

17. Sadly its not a stretch; picture this scenario

some poor sap/loser setting in his soon to be evicted room, contemplating suicide, he glances across the room and has a eureka moment as he sees his deer rifle propped up in the closet. The headline in the paper when he was looking for a job said “Democratic Presidential Candidate' Barrack Obama will be in town next week. at the high school stadium, and it gives the time to the minute he will be on stage. Said loser rubs his two brain cells together and manages to come up with a spark that in his paranoid mind make sense. The rest is history in his loser mind.

18. I wonder if this had anything to do with Obama skipping West Virginia.

19. Nation of Islam!

No I'm kidding, please don't ban me, but honestly I wouldn't rely on the secret service enitrely based on some of the rumors I hear,always best to have multiple, independent security teams(privately employed perhaps), to check one another.
