New Delhi, November 1, 2010: Not an inch of the ITC Maurya Sheraton will be without surveillance when US President Barack Obama arrives for a two night stay.
The luxury hotel is swarming with Delhi Police commandos a week before he checks in with wife Michelle.
Obama arrives for a Nov 7 9 stay at the Presidential Suite of the south west Delhi hotel and security is visibly tight even though police and hotel staff refuse to divulge details.
Police commandos in combat gear have been stationed in Mercedes vans.
Also fortifying the hotel are private guards lining the corridor that leads to the main entrance.
Hotel security admits that all staff, right from chefs to bellboys, are on high alert.
All the 440 rooms at the hotel have been booked for Obama and his entourage.
US officials discuss Teleprompter for Obama
NEW DELHI: A US technical team on Monday discussed with Indian officials installation of a teleprompter in the Central Hall of Parliament for use by US President Barack Obama during his address which will also mark the debut of the speaking aid in its hallowed precincts.
The US team deliberated on the Teleprompter issue with officials of Ministry of External Affairs and the Parliament, official sources said on Monday. Obama will take the help of a teleprompter to deliver on November 8, his address to the 780 odd members of Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha on the evening of November 8.
“Is he mildly retarded?” Yes
What is this all about? What is he trying to prove? I heard he was taking all 1500 staff with him. I’m sure that’s a rumor. Why would he do that. What is going on?
Not a rumor: I read yesterday that in addition to all the Secret Service, business, White House and military people, he’s taking SEVEN HUNDRED FBI Agents with him on this trip. I have no idea why he would need anywhere near that number when the Secret Service is in charge of his security. No ruler in the history of the world acted like this.
Is this an escape? Are they coming back to face the investigations? A fleet of 40 aircraft is evacuating all the Obamunnists.
He’s planning something. Definitely up to no good.
I have my suspicions, but I won’t post them here.
Retarded?
In Sheik Obama’s own words...
“It’s like the Special Olympics, or something”
I knew many of the Unified & Specified commanders who would have to actually authorize launch and flights. I can’t think of one who would go along with any hare-brained schemes involving nuclear weapons. Unless those generals and admirals are completely different these days, I don’t think we have much to worry about. The missiles and bombers don’t launch themselves.
Oh go ahead, post ‘em.
I’m very suspicious but can’t imagine what the sick fiend is up to. Other than something sickening and fiendish but I have no idea what.
No, I may be crazy, but I’m not stupid!
When you vote someone into the presidency without the experience of a hot-dog stand manager, you get turd-in-the-punchbowl results.
I think he’s up to something, too, especially with this last minute decision to take his wife and daughters with him. Personally, I think the India trip is just cover for his trip to Indonesia, where he plans to “address Muslims.” Just what is he going to tell them? And does he plan to take all these people to Indonesia with him?
How does that work, 2ndDivisionVet?
What if a nut POTUS “went ballistic” for whatever nut reason?
What if a traitor POTUS tried to lockdown US nuclear response?
What human overrides are there to a rogue POTUS?
And he could come back to his Utopian "police state". With most of Congress and the USSC gone.
Interesting scenario, isn't it?
That’s too large of a staff for this type of thing...Perhaps the residents of DC need to think about leaving their city!
So are thinking somewhat along the same lines?
It’s definitely too large a staff - almost as if he plans to operate elsewhere for awhile.
I don’t see him letting DC get nuked, though; he’s had much too much of a good time degrading the office of President and humiliating us by his behavior there. Plus I think he’d like to come back and raise the black flag (Islamic battle flag) over the WH some day. In any case, I think he has something up his sleeve and we should be vigilant.
