Conspiracy Theory Folks - Chime In (Obama's Security Detail)
Edited on Fri Feb-08-08 12:05 AM by jazzy062
I happened upon this blog post today:

Obama Security Lax
author: raven
Just what Bush needs to declare martial law
O'bama's security is so horrible, that it looks to be intentional.

I saw footage last night that just blew me away. O'bama was walking across a concrete lot, in the near background were several multi-stored buildings as near as 100 yards away. There were no security agents within 10 feet of (the principle), most were 20 to 30 feet away, I don't believe any were as tall as he is, and I did not see an agent of color either.

There have been many threats already and he looks to be on a standard 'packet'. With threats already made, he should be on 'special packet' that should include at least 8 agents as tall or taller. 4 each for both a front and rear fan design. He should never have been taken across that parking lot in the complete open under any circumstances. Your average deer hunter can be deadly accurate at those distances.

In the handshake crowd, there should be an additional 2 tall agents directly in front about 4 foot back from the line. Standard protection in the line should be as it is but to include the taller agents both in front and behind the principle.

The footage I saw was just unbelieveable. This nation has a sordid history of gunning down progressive leadership. In a time of economic hardship, there are internal pressures that build in those who see their economic world crashing down, nothing left to loose, throw in some racism and that creates extreme danger for O'bama.

I bring this up fo 2 reasons, not only does he need 'special packet' protection to keep him secure, but his killing and the explosion in the city streets would be the prime trigger point for just what bush and cheney really want, martial law and the delay or cancellation of the election. This would work perfectly for them and their 'unfinished agenda'.

This lack of protection needs public posting, this site is monitored and that is a good start, once this security lapse is posted, there can not be any denial that this was not 'foreseen'.

1. It wouldnt surprise me if the government isnt hoping someone ends the Obama problem
Its been plain since she first ran for the Senate that Hillary has been ordained to become President at the right time.

Obama was never supposed to get this far, challenging the chosen one when its her turn.

3. He needs security, no doubt about it.
They all do. Everyone on a national political stage has enemies, and there are always nutcases looking to make a name for themselves.

6. My husband noticed this
a few days ago while watching a clip on tv. He wondered why he did not have more security around him. With the large crowds he is drawing it would be easy for trouble.

9. i saw him in 2004 during a stop in my town.
the cops had the street blocked off, it was 10 or so in the morning and there was 0 traffic downtown. there were about 50 people standing in the street...i noticed one guy who was at least 6'8' and you just would`t fuck with him. a bit later there was another guy that was just as bad..then they were gone and a few minutes later obama`s people arrived checked things then he pulled up.

if he was this exposed as the article said there`s something wrong

14. Secret Service was everywhere in Boston...
Both at the event and before...I have a friend who works security at the World Trade Center in Boston, and He was telling me about how they were there the whole weekend before the rally, doing extensive background checks on the staff, putting cameras in ventilation systems, etc. And they were all over the place during the rally, very intimidating.
