The New White House Fence Could Wind Up Being Really, Really Tall

Now wait just a minute. The WH can have a fence but a fence wouldn’t work at the border? Explain that one.

[NorthMountain]

I’m sure that’s how Emperor Barackula sees himself.

[Sacajaweau]

A plane could fly over and drop a bomb for cripes sakes or lob one over the fence.

The fence is plenty high. You just have to implant pace makers in the security folks to keep them awake.

[TomGuy]

This is all WE need along the Southern border, so it should be sufficient for the White House. After all, WE don't want to make them feel unwanted or such with massive structured fence.



Maybe even replace the barbed wire with non-barbed wire so one of them won't stick himself/herself and get an injury.

[Kenton]

Something like this, except a little bigger, would work just fine.

[Sacajaweau]

You can put electric wire underground along the periphery that works like a taser. Someone told me that they had such a setup at XXXXX and they would release rabbits to test it.

[George from New England]

Can you say Compound?

[Qiviut]

I like that, too. :-)

Make it out of solid granite.
Make it 100 ft tall.
Fill it with water to check for leaks.

[molson209]

not going to be much taller ,but Obama will extend it and take more land

[Georgia Girl 2]

If they have to go to that just build a Presidential palace somewhere else for O to live with a brigade of soldiers guarding it. Call it the Green Zone East.

Knowing or government the plan will be for a billion dollar underground fence and a multi-billion dollar program to fit us all with shock collars so we can’t cross it.

[binreadin]

I say take the fence down. At least for now.

[piasa]

How about we surround it with sandbags and fill it up with fish emulsion?

[plain talk]

a King needs a moat

[glock rocks]

Yeppers. Richmond. Alcohol may have been involved :o)

According to the Richmond Times- Dispatch 53-year-old James Dennis was sentenced to 12 months in jail with all but one month suspended for disorderly conduct and public drunkenness.

You just have to implant pace makers in the security folks to keep them awake.

I was thinking of those gadgets that used to be marketed to long-haul truck drivers, that clip on your ear and emit a loud beep if your head tilts forward. Some sort of implanted cattle prod does sound more up-to-date, though.

[Da Coyote]

I would not willingly pay another penny to protect Dorkbama.

Now, if we had a real president, that would change.

But for Dorkbama, I’d take the fence down and let things happen as they may.

[Lizavetta]

I heard on a radio talk show recently that the dirty little secret of why this guy was able to get so far once he got in the White House was that he overpowered a female (** cough ** DIVERSITY ** cough) Secret Service agent.

Can anyone confirm this?
