As much as I support Obama, I do have to admit he is one candyass mofo. He seriously needs to grow a pair.

He's surrounded by women. Two daughters, a wife, mother-in-law, and all those women in his Administration. He's also a lawyer. The guy's probably never gotten into a fist fight in his life.

Maybe we need to send Obama out to Bush's ranch for a little lesson on how to man-up?

Or maybe he should go elephant hunting.

You reasoning is that Obama is soft is the reason for the increase in threats? WTF?

Not specifically, no. The article states alot of the increase is due to his being black. You misread my reasoning.

edit: easy enough to do. I didnt acknowledge part of the rise of threat due to his being black in my OP. My bad. Im doing it now. But its also my opinion he IS soft. Many world leaders have stated as such.

Maybe start a separate thread for the soft thing?

I'm not sure it fits with the Secret Service, threat story

Yes, an organization that tracks hate groups, what a sham organization.

Did they say bad things about a group you are in?

Send him hunting with Cheney?

Well this is interesting. It seems the Secret Service is not immune from the recession, and threats against Obama are up 400% from Bush according to this analyst. Read that again. This is an interesting two part article. The first, not so interesting, is that against rising threats against POTUS, the Secret Service isnt able to keep up. But more interesting, is the threat increase. Could it be Obama's outstretcdhed hand really is perceived as weakness? Could it be a war mongering POTUS may actually keep threats at bay? My opinion is the world sees Obama as soft. Of course, the Secret Service disagrees with this report (why wouldnt they?)

Or it could just be that right wing loons are more prone to that sort of thing than left wing loons.

That must be it. You couldn't be wrong as to who is a loon. Not you.

I've studied you long enough to know.

I often think to myself that Obama should just quit and tell Americans they aren't worth governing.

What you say is sad, but probably true. Americans aren't ready for real leadership yet. The nation will have to go to hell in a hand basket first and have mass suffering before we're ready for a real leader. Perhaps the people will never be ready.

Our government is a 100% reflection on the American people; we have the government that we want. I have seen the enemy and he is us.

I imagine the man could run circles around you. Seriously, the guy is in ridiculously good physical shape. Of course he doesn't really need to beat you in a fist fight, he could just drop a bomb on your house.

As for the OP,
Young black man faces more threats to his safety than old white man? How does this qualify as news?

Could it be that the right is just a bunch of spoiled, whiny ass, sore losers who like to make threats when they don't get their way? As evidenced by this very thread??

Do you even know who they are? Clearly not if you think that.

What in the article points to right wing vs left wing?

Your reasoning may be questionable but your agenda is transparent. Spread more fud. Spread more fud. Spread more fud. Soon, you're going to transcend hysterical. It'll be fun watching the meltdown.

WTF are you talking about? This is a news forum, and Im posting news. No where did I slam Obama, or cheer for anything. I was very neutral in posting this. The fact you see this any other way shows YOUR partisan douchebaggery, not mine. Would you care to discuss what was actually posted or would like to get into a "no you are" match?

And BTW please explain what FUD Im spreading?

As to the increase in "threats" - yeah, in this day and age with the web and other techs the "threats" can be found more easily. Back in the day this same "threat" might have just been two guys sitting in a coffee shop yapping.

That may be.

A working brain? He is a Democrat. You do the hate math.

 

[DealMonkey]

Ronald Kessler, the author of a recently released book on the Secret Service's protection of U.S. presidents, recently said that threats against President Obama are up 400 percent from the number of threats levied against former President George W. Bush, while the size of the agency's staff has only increased by 5.3 percent.

Considering what an arrogant dick GWB is and what a likable guy Obama is, I can't even believe these statistics are even accurate. There must be something else at play here.

Because that black man is our POTUS, and his protectors seem to be overwhelmed? f this was about a school principle, not news. But the POTUS?

Saying Obama is soft is not neutral. You may be too dense to see your own FUD. We are not.

I doubt it. Remember, guys hanging around Obama appearances with loaded handguns and assault rifles are barely scrutinized. Crazy preachers from AZ who openly advocate killing Obama don't seem to warrant a visit from the feds (that I'm aware of). Obviously, you have to do something really batshit insane to get the attention of the Secret Service these days.

Where is this pointing to the right? And where is the whining?

Ah I see. You categorize based on political affiliation. Got it. If the right is partisan its because they are bitter and stupid, but if left wing hacks like you do it, its intelligent. Got it.

I'll go ahead and mark you in the low IQ pool then. Fair enough.

Well, the article and the Globe article list race as part of the issue. What part of the increase, we dont know.

You understand that in the context of this article, "back in the day" is a couple years ago. So under the Bush administration we were so much worse at detecting threats than we are now?

You are talking to Caddy the Blind. The glaringly obvious illogicality you identified easily in his post is completely invisible to him. He doesn't think, he deflects any thinking that challenges his innate prejudice. His function is not to analyze but to create smoke to protect his inner lie. His job is to create out there to rationalize the flaws in his belief. He's a classic example of what it means to be blind and much can be learned from watching him and the form of his mentation. He illustrates to me that not only can a castle be built on sand, it can be built there out of nothing.

I *clearly* stated it was MY personal opinion. What the fuck is wrong with you? I certainly dont see you offering anything resembling intelligence other than shit slinging. Kind of like the apes at the zoo.
