You just know that Kerry wouldn't do that for the "little people"...not even his manservant. I wish I had a manservant....

Perhaps Chilean officials haven't seen the pictures of SS agents with Uzis.
If you see a briefcase or a side buldge on a guy wearing sunglasses and an earpeice, he's carrying neither documents nor excess bodyfat. He's locked and loaded.

More "differences of opinion" with the Secret Service:

This one almost appears to have the First Lady looking backwards at the commotion. It may or may not be here, but she did look back with the President turned and went over to help out. She appears very small, inside the room next to another woman.

I hear from other sources on FR at one time that SS love Bush family
They hate Clintons Gore and I don't remember who they didn't like either

Thank goodness for four more years of Laura and NOT Teresa. If the party started at 8:00, Tereza would have been drunk by 6:00.

And I told those agents, blah blah blah, and I said, blah blah blah, and I turned to the president of Chile and told him, blah blah blah, and of course we'll discipline that Secret Service agent for not watching my back, blah blah blah...

I know what you mean Guen....it's frightening. While I stand in awe of this president's courage, I also don't want to see him hurt in any way. It's such a dangerous world, and the powers that want him out of the way are more than just flesh and blood. Praying hard....
Just Remember - Those that stand with us are more than stand with those against us... Our Lord will uphold us in His omnipotent hand.
Prayers constantly for W and Laura's safe keeping.

I hope we get a good explanation on what really happened here. Actually, I don't want a public explanation. I want this dealt with internally. I think that having a huge discussion of this in public might shed more light on security measures than is a good idea. Maybe I'm naive but I think part of why security works is because the 'bad guys' don't know exactly what to plan for.
To: Seattle Conservative
This appears to be a Big Time screw-up, the SS is always right next to the Pres
I don't get your confusion. Just because some SS are next to him doesn't mean they all are. I trust that additional SS are dispersed about and around, further away.

You are so right, a major security breach. Heads will roll for this. Procedures will be changed and should be.
I think the President should change plans and fly home tonight. Something is amiss.

"Chilean security tried to stop the president's Secret Service from accompanying him," said White House deputy press secretary Claire Buchan. "He told them they were with him and the issue was resolved."
===
This is unbelievable! What were the chilean security agents thinking?! The whole point of the US secret agents is to be with the president and be ready to protect him anytime, anywhere.

I was kind of hoping he'd show up at my mother-in-law's...sigh! Wouldn't that be awesome?!?!
Oh, wait, I don't *have* a mother-in-law!
Well, if he shows up at your mother-in-law's I'm coming with YOU! :-D

My husband is an ex-Cuban and he admires our Cowboy President Bush something fierce. I won't repeat here the words he used to describe Kerry, but one day while he was searching for another name to call Kerry, I suggested "girlyman". He liked it! If my husband had his way, every future POTUS would be a Texas cowboy.

I love the look on Laura's face. :^) The look has my tired brain mushed. It's more than a look of peace and self-confidence. What would call it (besides beautiful)?

The guy could have started "dropping" the Chileans,
Agreed - that would have been unwise. I wouldn't want to
start a gun battle in the vicinity of the President, unless it was clear that the alternative was worse - as in right here and now lethal force already targeting the President.

Remember how nasty Kerry was to his Secret Service agents?
I bet they are glad too that he didn't get elected.
