Well we all know by now about this woman who was hired to lead the secret service only because she was female by Obama. Now she has to resign because of her utter incompetence. Some guy just runs into the White House. It took them 4 days to find billet holes in White House windows. She shut off he door alarm and left it unlocked. The list goes on.

No, they cannot, they simply make accusations, backing up accusations is not required among some here. But just so you know if You make any accusations you will be required to back them up with a ton of facts and data and even then they will still reserve the right to ignore them. Glad to catch you up on the rules here.

Look for Barack to hire the Black Panthers to take over.

Sure he will and we can expect you to begin making rational statements at the same time, right?

And the guy before her, who was in the same position when those bullet holes were actually created?

What's your reasoning for his hire?

I am not defending this woman in any way, however, she had a very distinguished career with the Secret Service prior to being hired for this position. Of course, not everyone is management material, but I don't see it as affirmative action but more a case of putting the fox in charge of the hen house.
Likely she was too far entrenched in the organization to see its flaws, let alone do anything about them.

So I wonder whether the incompetent agents that were derelict in duty in allowing these incidents to occur were hired because of affirmative action or white male privilege.
