Trade in a few more personal liberties to protect The One. He knew there'd be a lot of flak to take the job in the middle of an economic crisis.
you mean, just as the biggest economic crisis since the Depression was breaking, for him to come up with a way to fix, while he was being black and sporting an Arabic name?
your post is just more right wing fantasy. so many of those. people just throw them out there as if were somehow related to reality.
Just like the conspiracy theory that protestors with handguns are a danger to the president.
Oooooh, scary gunman with no criminal record near the president with tons of SS around him...scary!
Boo!
LOL, this is quite possibly one of the more ignorant posts I've seen on this forum. Congratulations! I don't even know where to begin w/how utterly stupid of a post this is.
Amid raucous protests on health care, some worry about Obama's safety - Yahoo! Canada News (http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/capress/090811/world/us_obama_death_threats - broken link)
Tue Aug 11, 6:20 PM By Lee-Anne Goodman, The Canadian Press
WASHINGTON - Death threats are part of the job for any American president, but Barack Obama has reportedly had more levelled against him than any commander-in-chief in history.
Concerns about his safety are mounting in the midst of a tense summer that has seen mobs of angry demonstrators showing up to protest Obama's health-care reform plans - including a man openly carrying a pistol on Tuesday in New Hampshire, where the president held a town hall meeting on health care.
It's legal to carry holstered weapons in the state, so long as they're not concealed. The man was also waving a sign that read "It Is Time To Water The Tree of Liberty," a reference to the Thomas Jefferson quote: "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
Footage of the protester with his gun in a leg holster rapidly made its way to various news websites in the hours before Obama appeared, alarming video in a country that has seen four presidents gunned down in public and attempts made on the lives of 11 others.
"There is, and rightly so, a growing concern about the tone in American politics right now," Cal Jillson, a political scientist at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, said Tuesday.
"It started with Sarah Palin and the way the crowds responded to her last year, and continued with the tea party gatherings and now the town hall meetings on health care - there is an arc of rhetorical excess that I think is rightly worrying to people."
A new book, "In The President's Secret Service," says Obama receives as many as 30 death threats a day, 400 per cent more than those made against his predecessor, George W. Bush.
Its author, Ronald Kessler, has sent shockwaves through Washington with his allegations that the cash-strapped Secret Service is cutting corners, leaving the first African-American president in U.S. history particularly vulnerable.
"There's no question his life is in danger," Kessler, a veteran investigative journalist, said in a recent television interview. "Tomorrow, Obama could be assassinated ... simply because the Secret Service was not doing what it used to do."

This is no surprise to me. There are still a ton of racists in this country that will never accept a black man in office. Honestly I am surprised there hasn't been a known attempt yet. I even heard about pools going around on how long it will be before someone takes him out.
Yes, Palin The Pig will be one of the ones responsible if ANYONE is killed or injured at one of these townhall meetings or rallies....and she will laugh about it afterwards....just like her supporters and the Republican pigs like Limbaugh and HIS supporters.
......and anyone who has posted inflammatory lies about Obama's health care plan.
But, of course, if it isn't them or someone on their side they WILL LAUGH about it and take great delight in it.....this country is now facing brainless, spineless, barbarians.

You're personal liberties were actually threatened under Bush, and some of his draconian practices are still in effect under Obama.
If he declares someone an "enemy combatant", you are thrown into a prison and have no legal means available to you. Bush also spied on Americans, as well as lying about a non existent threat to wage war on Iraq.
I have absolutely nothing in common with these barbarian, ignorant, uneducated trash that are showing up at these townhall meetings. If something happens to Obama, they will be fully responsible. Bunch of neanderthals who are totally unable to cope with reality.

Guess you slept through all that
It was ok back then because of, you know, terrorists.
Those who make death threats are heros to some cowardly spineless stupid little rabbits who can't fight with brains or words and sink to the lowest form of humanity.
Right, I believe this one. Just more liberal spin.
Just like how Obama claimed that during the campaign people were yelling out "kill him" at the Palin rallies but not one person, police, secret service,etc./ heard it. It was just a little voice in Obama's head. LOL
