Obama assassination bid fears - aircraft carriers on standby off Irish coast during G8 summit
@Press Eye Ltd Northern Ireland - 17th June 2013 - Mandatory Credit - Brian Little/ Presseye --- Culture Minister Carl N Chuiln and Minister for Education, John O'Dowd MLA waiting for US President Barack Obama during his visit to the Waterfront Hall, Belfast ahead of the G8 Summit in County Fermanagh.

It is understood that a contingency plan is in place for the unlikely event that an attempt would be made on the Presidents life.
The Secret Service also have diplomatic immunity which will allow them to shoot to kill a would-be assassin without fear of prosecution.
As part of the evacuation route plan, they would be able to spirit the President by chopper to one of the carriers where a jet is on standby to take him back to the United States.
A source said: It sounds like James Bond stuff but the Americans treat the personal protection of their President with the utmost seriousness.
They have plans in place for all possible incidents, despite how unlikely they might seem or how much security is already in place.....

Could we just give the job to any bidder and not wait for a highest bidder. I mean this is a government job, sort of, so why do we have to have bids to take it?

Abdul: "Yesyesverymuch. If I could strike but a single blow and tear their hearts out I would earn my 72 virgins for all of eternity."
Achmed: "Well, Obonzo's in town - I guess you could whack him..."
Abdul: "Did you not hear what I was saying, Achmed? I hate the United States and want the worst for it. I shall send the fellow a fruit basket and a hearty thank-you note."

Obama knows how our people were ignored in Benghazi by our governmentThey weren't ignored by the government jaz. They were abandoned by him personally. Assets were screaming to get the gitgo to help.

The spelling is tricky.
I believe it's pronounced "Roseanne Barr."

Yeah I would agree with this. I am almost certain that if he killed himself on the 50 yard line during the next Superbowl halftime show, there would be a superprising number of people who would believe he was assassinated. I am resigned to have him leave office as a total disgrace.
To: Pollster1
If there is an immediate threat to our Dear Leader, Im sure the military will protect Obama every bit as energetically as he protected our people in Benghazi. Will they have to wait on cross-border authorization? In writing?

A cheap quad drone for $250.00 and some C-4 is all that is needed to take anyone out.

Do we really want a president Joe Biden?I would not say that Biden is my idea of a president but I sure would prefer him over that excuse for a man who now occupies the office.
At least, I think that Biden loves the USA whereas Obama does not.
To: rabidralph
as if they're willing it to happen.
