Driving Mr. Obama

Sandra Rose November 20, 2008

This is how Barack Obama is riding these days since racking up more death threats than any president-elect in modern history.

A U.S. Secret Service Counter Assault Team member holds his assault rifle as he rides in a sports utility vehicle in President-elect Barack Obama’s motorcade as it drives to The Kluczynski Federal Building, the location of Obama’s Chicago transition office, Tuesday, Nov. 18, 2008.

I take it that the picture “inset” is suppose to be him riding in the back seat, huh?

*Folks gettin’ real lazy with the photoshop these days. Just laying pictures on top of stuff and trying to pass it off.*

damn right, hell i would want the navy seals, delta force around me, can’t make it easy for these fools.

He hasn’t even made it to “official” president status and has death threats. Shows people are just reacting off of his color vs. ignorant or detrimental policies he has passed.

Go Barack!

im glad they taking these threats serious. i know what its like to be hated on too . lol
check it a co worker showed a vid of her kids church step show. i said hey the doing the dance the smuf. she said that no how u do it and jump up and did some kinda dance. my girl, Tammy said “bish, u aint did the smurf u just had a mild seizure and when my grand ma use to have those my momma would stick a spoon down her throat.” i died laughing…after i got up off the floor from laughing, i had to find my gap band cd and do the smurf for her and tammy did the most hoochiefied smurffet i ever seen. lol

a guy who works at ups recorded the motorcade w/ his phone and the secret service “politely” took the phone and deleted the footage…the security presence down there is bananas…the post office even made changes to their final pick-up times downtown…

i used to work in that building when i was working as a college intern…had me feeling real special for a few months…showed my lil ol badge and walked right past security

i beg to differ, im sure security is beefed up but i doubt the actuall rifle shooter is in the same car as obama.

Sandra~

I know you can do better than that. IF you keep on talking and posting everything you see and hear about our PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA you gonna be old and gray before you know it. Stop being a potty mouth and kick back.

@Purepisces, yeah I got sidetracked by the hotness of the white boy my dang self… I do see the Lance Armstrong comparison, but I’m thinking more like Chase, Jack Bauer’s son-in-law on 24 and BTW I am straight feigning for the new season.

This is nothing new. He may have extra security now, but the Secret Service has been holding him down for a year or so now. When I went to one of his rally’s in Charlotte a couple of months ago he was surrounded by about 8 Secret Service people and there were several others lurking around, not to mention that I saw at least 8 snipers on the roofs surrounding the rally. I’m pretty sure that Mr. Obama has not been doing his own driving for a long time now.

All Ps and VPs since JF have had this in there MC. This is nothing new. If you go to WDC, you will see this is a normal practice.

You need to show the pic of what they did when somebosy cut in the motorcade….guns coming out of ALL windows…even the rear hatch!

They better protect him…b/c if something happens to him, they gon need to protect every block in America……

That’s real right there….
donnia

Actually, officers always lean out of the windowns of SUVs pointing machine guns the motorcades. It does not only happen when the President is part of the motorcade. The one difference with the President’s motorcade is an ambulance is always part of his motorcade. It’s nice to see folks paying attention and learning now that Barack Obama is President-elect.

Also, the toy soilders who protect the White House (i.e., Executive Mansion) are something to fear also. These “kids” are training killers. As friendly as they can seem, they will take you out in the blink of an eye.
