This is food for thought and should be a question posed during this campaign over and over.

We are electing a man who is to granted access to information on par with holding the highest level of security clearance available in our land.

Past or present, association with known terrorists would disqualify anyone from any level of security clearance in the United States, particularly a high-level, correct?

OK folks, carrying this a step further, we can have some fun (and protect our country in the process)?

Can somebody over at Department of Homeland Security or F.A.A. get Mr. Obama on a NO FLY LIST for domestic commercial aircraft in the United States, due to his past association and joint work with a DOMESTIC TERRORIST? At least he needs to be AAAA'ed from here on out on his boarding passes due to this connection.

I had a top secret clearance and there would have no way I could have gotten it if I had associations with people like BO does. Of course it did not seem to stop Bill Clinton from becoming president. The FBI checks people out for clearances.

We set ourselves up for this one. Yes, you can be a terrorist, but if you are elected President you will have access to the most sensitive military secrets available. How better way to take this country down then that. We are screwed.

"the Weathermen is one of the organizations that is specifically ask about on the initial paperwork when applying for these security clearances."

Bravo! Great line!

This should be used as-is in the next debate. Senator McCain, do you FREEP? Are you reading this??!! What a great line to say in "Obama's face."

Almost certainly not.

Does anyone have a copy of the current information application for a TS Clearance?

[Kenny Bunk]

Of course, Obama would not get a security clearance.
So what?
As POTUS, thanks to McC and Acorn, he won't need one.

To get a security clearance, you need to produce a Birth Certificate....

[WaterBoard]

Obama does not have to pass a background investigation if he is elected president.

Which leads me to ask: Is Ayers on the no-fly list?

[<1/1,000,000th%]

No.

But we wouldn’t get clearance if we were cokeheads who spent time in the Soviet Union like Bill Clinton either.
