Hundreds of thousands of cops to provide security for Obamas inauguration security?
KFI Los Angeles ^ | 12/10/08 | KFI Los Angeles

They are reporting law enforcement agencies from all over the U.S. are being farmed out to provide security for Obamas inauguration security...

Reporting several hundred from the L.A. County Sheriff's office are also included to travel to D.C. in this epic security effort.

What the hell is this going to cost Americans?

John and Ken said tonight on their show that the cops from Cauliphonya were going to spend 1.6 mil on this fiasco. They’ve got to buy warm clothes and all that jazz. That should really speed up Ahnold’s budget deficit clock. LOL!

Five million spectators, one million police officers? A cop for every FIVE people? What do they know that we don’t know? At the Des Moines Airport Air Guard base I guarded President Reagan and then VP George H.W. Bush and we never had anything like those numbers...

Maybe Al Gore will attend . . with associated Gore “Effect” of Cold snow Ice Blizzard weather for the Inaugeration.
WHAT IS THE BIG DEAL anyhow ?
Everyone trying to get in the Payout line ?
I hope a NorEaster comes down from Canada and gives the greenies some Frostbite . . . maybe a new record low temp will send a message to ‘em ?

> They are reporting that upwards of *one million* cops will be providing security/cover for this guy.

From the *classic* movie “The Warriors”:

“There ain’t but 20,000 cops in all of NYC. CAN YOU DIG IT!”

Gee, I thought the majority loved him.
Why would they need so much defense?

German Chancellor Adolph Hitler never had ANYTHING like this. He was frequently amongst thousands of armed troops and Nazi party members with only a .32 in his waist pocket and his SS bodyguards. If a despot like Hitler didn’t need tight security, what is this wimp afraid of?

I worked for President Reagan in the service, before the Air Base gig. I’ve talked with both gentlemen hundreds of times. Both of them were GREAT people, especially President Reagan. I miss him much as I miss my father.

Ironic, isn't, when the "Chosen One" needs so much security...I was told that, everybody is having a "schmo's fest" celebrating the "Messiah" to pull their sorry asses out of financial doldrums and install the happiness of Shangri-La, while holding hands and sing Kumba-Ya.

It is really odd, that a President Elect, surrounded by the Love of the people, needs such an detail of security!

GB2 came to my son’s high school graduation. There were a bunch graduating too. He stood on the football field and shook hands and took pictures with each one.

This report doesn’t deserve consideration. L.A. will become a war zone if hundreds of deputies are in D.C. to protect the empty one.
Is it even possible to arrive at a true figure of hundreds of thousands of police officer in the United States.

Instead of spending all the money, organizing it, and dealing with the risks...Couldn’t the media just report it as having happened? That it was the best one ever? And then if anyone questions it later...pull down the articles?

These cops, are they being bused in from Nola? There's probably a million on paper, anyway.

Par-tay!

“What the hell is this going to cost Americans?”

A mere pittance compared to everything else the corrupt Dems have planned for us.
