. . .apparently made by the U.S. Secret Service. . .Interesting. Perhaps the Secret Service hates Obama even more than they hate Hillary.

...the order was made by federal officials who were in charge of security at the event. Toon holdovers?

hmmm...interesting that no liberal was concerned for BUSH at all, especially after 911. In fact, I believe HOllywood was glorifying about BUSH in one of their movies a couple years back.

This is weird. Why would the Secret Service issue an order breaching security so that the auditorium could fill up faster? This is the stuff that conspiracy theorists thrive on.

Odds are it was ordered by some high up in the Klinton Kamp.

Doesn’t compute. Why would the Secret Service choose to move the line along when it may allow guns to be brought into such an event.
Would like to hear more about this, as at first glance it makes no sense at all.

Perhaps the order was relayed by a Hillary spokesman on “behalf” of the secret service?
This is TRULY strange.

This is the stuff that conspiracy theorists thrive on.For the same reason JFK insisted on an open car in Dallas with no SS riding on the back. He wanted to be seen by the people.
Political expediency often trumps security, and the president/candidate is the one who gives the orders.

Maybe the Obama campaign wants to make the Secret Service look racist so they can be replaced like Bill Clinton wanted to do at the beginning of his Presidency.
Obama could use the Farrakhan’s Nation of Islam guards.

Maybe he ordered it to allow everyone to get in the building faster so they could hear the false prophet speak.

I’d guess that came from Obama but went through the SS and they had to approve it or they would not have passed it along.
I can see where the Dallas police might be a little extra zealous in their searches - nobody wants to see a candidate get killed but to have “The Black Kennedy” get killed in Dallas would be particularly horrific.
And after the incident with the military police unit told to stand down in 1963, they’d have to be foolish not to document this with the press.

I’ll take “who besides Charles Mason is least likely to ever get out of prison” for $100, Alex.
