HOUSTON — Federal authorities say a Texas woman has admitted to mailing a letter that threatened the life of President Barack Obama.

Prosecutors in Houston announced Friday that 56-year-old Teddy Bear Paradise pleaded guilty to a charge of threatening the president. The woman was previously known as Denise O’Neal.

Prosecutors say she admitted to sending the letter addressed to Obama telling him she was traveling to Washington, D.C. to kill him. They say she later told two Secret Service agents of her intention and that if she couldn’t commit the act herself, she would hire someone else to do it.

Paradise will remain in custody until her November sentencing. She faces up to five years in prison.

1. Hope she gets the full 5 years.

2. I was about to blame her parents.

Until I saw that it appears she herself changed her name to that.

3. Why is it that half of the headlines these days read like they're from the Onion or the Daily Curran

or some other satirical news site?

4. My Guess?

She will get off lightly. You couldn't peacefully protest George W. Bush without the Secret Service showing up, but people make threats against President Obama all the time and it's accepted. God that makes me angry!

7. She obviously wanted attention, I mean while tell two Secret Service agents and mail the letter?

With a name like Teddy Bear Paradise, she has to be an old stripper who misses the attention! Lol
