Cheney may get Secret Service after office
A bipartisan bill the House is scheduled to take up next week would require the Secret Service to protect Vice President Dick Cheney for six months after he leaves office. The Homeland Security Department would be authorized to determine if additional protection is necessary after the initial deadline ends.
The bill (H.R. 5938) was introduced by House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers (D-Mich.) and Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas), ranking member of the committee. Reps. Bobby Scott (D-Va.) and Louie Gohmert (R-Texas), the chairman and ranking member of the Crime, Terrorism and Homeland Security subcommittee, are also co-sponsors of the bill.
The legislation would require the Secret Service to protect the vice president and his or her spouse as well as any children 16 or under for six months after leaving office. Cheney would be the first vice president covered by the new bill, but it would also apply to future holders of the office.
Once the six-month deadline is reached, the secretary of Homeland Security is authorized “to direct the Secret Service to provide temporary protection for any of these individuals at any time thereafter” if a senior DHS official “determines that information or conditions warrant such protection.”
Recent vice presidents, including Al Gore and Dan Quayle, were given Secret Service protection after leaving office, but that was under temporary legislation or executive order, according to a May 16 Congressional Budget Office report. To give Cheney that same protection would cost $4 million next year, CBO estimated.

How is it that some “demonstrators” can get away with being just plain vile?
By the way, these clowns are old Marxists who haven’t learned a damn thing from the collapse of communism the World over.
Anybody that disagrees with Obama and Dems will be labled racists thats how they do it folks shutting down debate by charging racism.

Excellent post potlatch -
All - All of those who voted in 2008 and in Congress must be punished bigtime -
This is fascist affirmitive action bill to forcibly redistribute assets, income, liberties and to control all Americans under an elite Socialist tyranny -
Spend your dollars only with those that agree with you
Shun all and punish all those who voted to steal your maney and rights
Thank you.
To shun and punish all those that disagree seems to be the norm now.
We are becoming tempered, like steel, now.
Hmmm....I didn’t know Cheney still had the power to get us out of Iraq....
Protesting the war in the post Bush era is fine, but they need to be protesting the ONE who said he would stop the war, but has done just the opposite, the ONE who lied to them.
I guess when its their President in charge of everything he can do no wrong.
I love it when peace protesters turn violent. :)
“Protesters at a Washington, D.C. antiwar march whose leadership has ties to the Democrat party savagely ‘murdered’ an effigy of former Vice President Dick Cheney yesterday.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
And the Secrt Srvice is investigating of course???????
I say we do the same for he current pretender in the White House and see how fast the SS is in attendence.”
The word from a friend of mine who works in the White House is that while the rank & file SS agents are professionals and many are veterans and former police officers, the SS leadership are mostly Democrat lackeys hired during the Clinton Administration by the Bubba loyalist Ronald Noble in 1994/95 for obvious reasons. Most of these high ranking officers are still in command and send their agents after right wingers...
Morale is said to be very low in the SS, as the agents know they are being jacked around by Leftist political hacks.
Also their OT pay has dried up and they are required to work 80 plus hours per week.
Perhaps this is the reason the “party crashers” got passed the SS agents recently - The agents were falling asleep.
Yes, I got the same scoop from 2 freepers who know some retired agents.
“Yes, I got the same scoop from 2 freepers who know some retired agents.”
I think if the situation really goes Code Red with Obama, the SS will side with the American People. I understand most of the rank & file are conservative and Republicans who take their oath to the Consitiution very seriously.
Also, they are law enforcement officers who could arrest Obama at any time if they see him commit a felony, or have information that he is a threat to national security.
I would love to see him arrested and frog marched down the road to the pen.
Then tried for treason...
