2 Secret Service agents crashed into White House barricades after attending party, report says
Fox News ^ | 3/11/15 | Fox News

Two senior Secret Service agents -- one of whom is a top member of President Obama's protective detail -- reportedly drove a government car into White House security barricades after drinking at a late-night party last week.

The Washington Post, citing a current and a former government official familiar with the incident, reported Wednesday afternoon that the officers on duty who witnessed the March 4 incident wanted to arrest the agents and conduct sobriety tests. But the officers were ordered by a supervisor on duty that night to let the agents go home, said the sources, who spoke to the paper on the condition of anonymity.

Witnesses reported that the car’s overhead flashing lights had been activated and both agents were showing their badges to get through a section of the grounds that had been closed off due to an investigation of a suspicious package, according to the people familiar with the incident, the Post reported. The vehicle ran through security tape before hitting the barricades, which an agency official said had been set up temporarily during the investigation into the package.

Maybe they had prostitutes in the backseat.

If there were a couple of giggling news reporterettes in the back seat, that would be "pressitutes"...

To these people, the only thing that matters is if the secret service has enough minorities, gays, lgbtqrsters and women in the ranks.

Geez, what the hell has happened to the Secret Service.

Maybe the image we had was a lie all along.

I so do not want to believe that.

“Were they gunned down like that woman was?”

That was my first thought also.

Then my second thought was WTF? The new Director Clancy can’t get these klowns under control? Its a disgrace to our country. It ticks me off beyond belief. There should be zero tolerance for this crap. I mean one time and you are gone.

If I was Barry I would 911 Gavin DeBecker at this point. I can’t believe I actually feel sorry for the guy but no President of the US should be protected by a bunch of drunks. Its beyond Ridiculous.

It was then that Mr. Bush responded, pushing into the crowd of angry security officials, pointing at Mr. Trotta and ordering that he be released. Mr. Bush finally reached over and grabbed the agent by the suit collar.
“He’s with me,” Mr. Bush said as he waded into the scuffle and pulled the agent through the crowd.”

One of Dubya’s finest moments in office. I must have watched that video a hundred times. :-)

By the way, this is exactly what "Patches" Kennedy pulled off a few years ago. Used to stumble out of the Hawk & Dove and drive around DC in his jive-ass Mustang completely wasted, still couldn't figure out what the heck was goin' on when he passed the Treasury department and wanted to take a "right" on Pennsylvania Avenue but hey aren't those bollards-CRASH!...

Read Ronald Kessler’s new book and you’ll know EXACTLY what has happened to the Secret Service. It’s fantastic.

I remember that incident, GG2.

Obama would just stand by and say the agent acted foolishly.

Remember this one.

I sure do! I was in the kitchen tending to Thanksgiving dinner with my eyes glued to FNC. Made me so happy and thankful the rest of the day!

One almost wonders what the qualifications are for a Secret Service agent these days.

2 months as a trainee at Homeland Security?

The pool of people that are willing to sacrifice themselves for a narcissistic faggot communist moslem homosexual Dictator is small.

They should cut these guys a break.

So basically despite banishing that incompetent dyke Pierson, the SS is still up to unreal shenanigans.

Not good at all.

Your remarks about Patches are racist.

I agree. I suspect the Left has lowered standards so adversely, that sooner or later it will cost their own guy his life.

Then they’ll act like nobody knew, and they’ll implement some wanker policies that will screw things up even worse.
