Anyone notice that Secret Service agent shadowing Michelle Obama?

Even since that apparent assassination attempt was uncovered, it seems like they're keeping a real close watch on the Obama family.

1. They damn well better.

2. And they WILL. Those guys don't mess around. (n/t)

6. No more of this "stand down in Dallas" shit, I hope

Although I do think little Sasha is a bit too young to learn what an MP5 looks like up close and personal. I just hope the entire family is kept safe.

3. I noticed an agent checking out the scene when Kerry was walking in to

A lot of times, you don't even know they are there.

4. and they need to be watching the kids all the time. The more protection for them the better.

5. They better keep them safe

7. Better them watching than not. Besides Obama is safer now president Biden would -->

show no mercy on the GOP. It's a beautiful day folks.

8. I hope they are privately tutored for 8 years they can be insulated that way.

11. No, there was no attempt.

Two guys were caught with rifles and some meth. Authorities are investigating whether they meant Obama any harm.

12. Not exactly an attempt

They did arrest some guy in downtown Denver who had a sniper rifle and some other weapons, if I remember correctly. They also found meth on the guy, which automatically means he wasn't playing with a full deck.

10. Honestly...

I think they need to not let the children out in public and both of them need bulletproof vests. I'm very afraid for them right now.

13. This reminds me of the West Wing episode

Where the Secret Service agents are explaining to the children of Jimmy Smits character.

14. Let's not get carried away, please. There was no "attempt".. and there is as yet no PROOF that

the guys were going after Obama with their "guns and meth". All I'm saying is let's wait before we enlarge the rumor.. there will be more tomorrow and if it turns out to be a couple of redneck drug runners doing business as usual, we'll all look silly.
