Reading the story about President Obama breaking tradition and ditching the presidential press pool over the weekend to watch one of his daughter's soccer games, it appears harmless, right? Not so. It is rather disturbing when you dissect it. So let's do just that. According to the Chicago Sun Times, the press pool was to assemble at 11:30AM.
However, Time reported:
The president left the White House at approximately 9:20 to attend one of his daughter's soccer games at 40th and Chesapeake NW. A pool was hastily called at around 9:35 and drove north at 9:43 to catch the president before the game ended. We didn't make it. The President returned to the White House at 10:17. The pool returned at 10:30. We now return you to your regularly scheduled pool call time.
Seems simple enough. But the story has several problems. The first one is a biggie in that there were no scheduled soccer games for Sidwell Friends April 10, as evidenced here. The second is that the area reported that the game was played at appears to be one of high crime, as documented here and here. Additionally, this is a picture of the field via Google Maps, where Obama went to watch the game.

Gone for less than an hour...inquiring minds want to know!
I’m in the middle of moving so haven’t kept up- is there ANY more info on this? Has it been discovered if he had the SS with him? I can’t imagine he went anywhere without them.
D. Meeting his imam
perhaps he was getting a “before nooner”.......
Sometimes, a guy just needs a line.
Did any of the reporters ask Gibbs about it?
oh, that was my thought too!
Crack Run!!!!!!!!!
Concur. It is NOT a high-crime area at all.
Probably just a run to the local convenience store to get a carton of fags.
Don’t the Secret Service have a responsibility to report any unsavory activities? I guess not with this s o b.
Very strange indeed!
Thanks for the ping.
I may not always reply but do read them.
Exactly.
Do you know where your blonde is?
I really can’t blame the guy for needing to get away from those morons once in a while.
i keep seeing that picture crop up. who is that?
He went to meet someone whose name, he believed, shouldnt show up on the White House visitor log.
