Title: Secret Service Members Investigated For
Post by: Palehorse on April 14, 2012, 12:35:27 PM
. . . Patronization of prostitutes while in Columbia.  :eek:

They have been relieved of duty and sent packing back to Washington.

Wasn't too brilliant on their part in more ways than one.  At least Obama's safety wasn't compromised from what I understand.

Actually I think it happened the day before his arrival.  I also think I read where it was part of their uniformed division which aren't the same as the suits and dark glasses closest to the POTUS.

Had not seen that. In any case it is a breach of code of conduct. Even if prostitution is legal there!  :biggrin:

  Well, boys will be boys.  When the cat is away the boys will play.  There seems to have been a stool pigeon watching.   :eye: :bird:  :wink: :biggrin:

The POTUS said "I expect that investigation to be thorough and I expect it to be rigorous. If it turns out that some of the allegations that have been made in the press are confirmed, then of course I'll be angry."

I'm thinking there are going to be a few openings in the Secret Service in a few weeks!

  So what they were having a little fun and it is legal where they were.  Why can't they party on their time off.  The president hadn't got there yet.

  If they get rid of them, they are loosing some good well trained men.  SO WHAT.  I am getting so sick of this Mamby Pamby way of going things.  It's getting so bad you can't do anything because it's against the law and some Christian do gooder watching what everyone else does.   :rant: :@#%&: :dam: :sarcasm:

You were in the service weren't you?

It is a potential weak link that could be exploited in order to get to the POTUS. The men and women who enter into the Secret Service understand the requirements of the position, and the reasons for them. They also understand the ramifications for ignoring them.

And it isn't just the POTUS, but state secrets that are at risk as well. . .

It's not about religious poopie. . . Not at all.

  After all of the investigations, all the pressure, they are going to control the bad, bad boys of Secret Service, the ones who are left working.   :rolleyes:

  These bad, bad boys are going to have chaperones.  :haha:  But, what I want to know is, who's going to watch the chaperones.  It looks like one big circle jerk to the Troll.  :haha:  :haha:

  Maybe we could get Phyllis Schafly, Michell Bachman and her husband, Pat Robertson and Senator Grassley to chaperon them.  How sweet it is to live in such a Mamby Pamby world.   :rant:
