I've been wondering who gets secret service protection?

Former presidents do. Their wives and underage children do unless the wife remarries. Oh, and under a new law, Bush will be the first president who's protection is limited to 10 years after leaving office.

Candidates for president do (but that seems to depend on how serious their candidacy is)

Vice Presidents and former. People in line for Presidency? Pity the secret service agent who 'gets' to protect The Nancy. But even more pity to the ones guarding The Pantsuit.

But other people, like former Secretaries of Defense, etc.?

Does anyone know. A lot of this is at the discretion of the President.

The little commie coward had no idea if these girls were SS agents or not, he just ran away when they looked at him. He just invented a confrontation with the Secret Service to make himself feel tough. They might have been Rummy's grandkids.
