Reporters with Obama surrounded by Nation of Islam security agents

Dispatches from the small group of reporters that always travel with the president – referred to as “pool reports” – are usually pretty mundane affairs: Air Force One landed at such and such a time, POTUS (president of the United States) motorcaded to such and such spot, POTUS did this, POTUS did that.

But Saturday evening in Chicago, as the pool of roughly seven or eight reporters waited for President Obama while he and his family attended a backyard barbecue at a friend’s house, they were surrounded by nearly two-dozen members of the Nation of Islam’s security services.

Here’s how it went down, based on pool reports from the New York Times’ Jackie Calmes. Pool reports are sent out to the entire White House press corps, as well as other reporters who ask to receive them.

At 4:10 p.m., the reporters in the pool were positioned at the corner of Greenwood Avenue and East 50th Street and watched as the president, first lady Michelle Obama, their daughters Malia and Sasha, and the first lady’s mother and brother and his wife walked up the street to the home of Marty Nesbitt.

The pool was then moved, in vans as part of a motorcade, to Woodlawn and 49th, where they waited for several hours. It turns out, they were right in front of the home of Louis Farrakhan, the current leader of the Nation of Islam.

As the handful of reporters stood on the sidewalk outside the vans passing time, a man came out of Farrakhan’s mansion and asked them to keep their feet off the grass, though as Calmes’ report notes, the only grass their feet had touched was city curbside property.

The news here is the Keystone Cops quality of the 'Fruits' (of Islam).

4:10pm} one Fruit questions reporters, retreats, talks on cell phone, uses radio, mentions "CIA"

8:00pm} moving swiftly, the first Fruit is joined by three others!!

8:45} a dozen Fruits now assembled; two walk around chanting "Islam"

9:20} now 22 have assembled, "greeting each other with elaborate handshake/hug/double air-kisses"

10:15} "the standoff ended with the help of a local clergyman"

This must have been the B team.

.....Bad Neighborhood !.....

How about bad city. The daily number of homicides and shootings is going asymptotic. The danger of an inadvertent drive by shooting by igmos who are unaware of the Messiah’s presence is real.

I wonder what sort of reaction would occur if the Tea Parties had a “paramilitary wing”

Call it a militia wing.. and they do.

Is this The Convention which you describe? These people have a very creepy Manson-esque attitude toward society. I cannot see any good arising from this event, or from the regime's support of the sponsoring group.

Maybe this will clue in a few of the whorehouse media what kind of sewage they have been swimming in for the last two years.
