Laura Ingraham blames "diversity" for White House breach (1 Viewer)

I generally like Koya's work here but there's something innately gratifying when a "who are you?" post gets slammed back in some board veteran's face.

Yes, yes, I can predict one of the next posts we'll see now. Eff you in advance.

Not sure how it was slammed in my face. And I'm sober now.

Unless it had to do with my "multitasking" of FFA And whiskey.

You probably just missed the answer to your question with all the multitasking you do. It's not easy to read, blather on, and pat yourself on the back simultaneously.

Oh.

Ok, back to actual real discussion...

is this the same chick that "oversaw" our secret service banging half of Brazil? If so, should have resigned LONG ago.

Damn, Obama is a freakin' mess. What a disappointment.

No, she was brought in to clean up the service's image after all that happened. So there are lots of things to learn here1. Boys will be boys. Overreacting to incidents involving prostitutes, strippers, or high-speed watercraft is always a bad idea. Let the children play you uptight pantywaists.

2. Women can't do anything. They should never be hired to do any job that smacks of masculinity unless they are Pink or Grace Jones or a similar species of Manan.

3. Socialist muslim foreigners should never be elected President, as they simply don't care about American values enough to competently pick leaders of the secret service. Also, Obamacare, Benghazi, and let's not forget Robert Ayers.

4. No matter what happens, if something goes wrong somewhere in the country, its indicative of Obama's massive failure as a President.

i generally agree with all of this, except you can't just throw Benghazi in with a bunch of other issues as if it were just one more to be discussed. Benghazi deserves it's own sentence, it's own paragraph. And you can't just say it, you have to scream it, like this: BENGHAAAZIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!

See how that rolls off the tongue?

We haven't talked about Reverend Wright in a while...

but if we really want to get down to it, this was all caused by Teddy and his trust-busting. The beginning of socialism.

Maybe this director was hired based on her sex. And maybe I undervalue what role that position actually plays in day to day operations, but it doesn't really matter to me. However, I heard on the news that when the White House intruder was inside, he overpowered a woman secret service agent. That is unacceptable, and if a woman can't do the same job as a man, they shouldn't be in that position. Tough noogies.

Totally agree. Same for local fire and police - you are either physically able to do the job or not, regardless of gender, religion, orientation etc

And if any of those men had detained him and the guy "overpowered" them to escape, I'd question their ability too. Point stands.

Julia Pierson Wanted To Run Secret Service 'Like Disney World': Washington Post

Julia Pierson resigned as the head of the scandal-ridden Secret Service on Wednesday, but details about her shaky tenure at the agency keep emerging.

A critical new report from The Washington Post portrays Pierson as a consistent voice for a less robust security presence around President Obama and other dignitaries. One of the most damning details: Pierson, who was "irate" at what she considered excessive security measures for this summer's U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit, said that “We need to be more like Disney World. We need to be more friendly, inviting.” Pierson had worked as a Disney costumed character during high school.

In another instance, Pierson wanted to assign around 30 officers to patrol the perimeter of the White House, even though an internal report recommended 100.

The report also outlined the Secret Service's lack of morale and inability to "to fulfill its sacred mission."

Not telling Obama of elevator breach was 'final straw' for Pierson, source says

Washington (CNN) -- There had been "growing concern" about former U.S. Secret Service Director Julia Pierson's leadership in the two weeks since a man with a knife managed to jump the White House fence and get into the East Room, a source tells CNN.

But the "final straw," the source said, was that she and the agency did not inform the president about a September 16 breach at the CDC in Atlanta -- in which a private contractor who had a concealed gun shared an elevator with President Barack Obama -- until just before the media reported it on Tuesday afternoon.

"The problems about the elevator breach were a) that it happened, b) that no one told the White House about it in the midst of two weeks of many discussions with them about security and then c) that the president didn't find out till just before the media was about to report it," the source said, agreeing that "final straw" would be an apt description of that event.

she looks like she has had a stroke

7 would be imo anna kendrick (actress), Megyn Kelly, Brooke Baldwin, Natilie morrales

they would be in the seven range

9-10's being Jennifer Lawrence, Minka Kelly, Upton and Alba

On looks alone, she is no better than average, even for her age, and once she talks, her number plummets to the ground floor. She isn't Ann Coulter-revolting, but she's in that same ballpark. Snarky women don't turn me on, sorry.

The J-Law hype is absurd. She's attractive but more cute and girl next store than hot. 7.5-8. Not close to minks or alba - or upton if you are into BBWs

Ok, I get it. Comparing her to those standards she's in the 4-5 range.

IT'LL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN!!!

Search is broken. Is this the current "the secret service is incompetent" thread?

Drunk-Driving Secret Service Agents Accidentally Crash Into White House Barricades (including "a top member of the President's protective detail")

The Obama administration is investigating allegations that two senior Secret Service agents, including a top member of the president’s protective detail, drove a government car into White House security barricades after drinking at a late-night party last week, an agency official said Wednesday.

Officers on duty who witnessed the March 4 incident wanted to arrest the agents and conduct sobriety tests, according to a current and a former government official familiar with the incident. But the officers were ordered by a supervisor on duty that night to let the agents go home, said these people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive internal matter.

The episode presents an early test for the Secret Service’s new director, Joseph P. Clancy, who was appointed by Obama last month following a string of security lapses at the White House and other embarrassing missteps and had vowed to restore the agency’s once-stellar reputation.

Clancy on Monday directed that the inquiry be led by the Department of Homeland Security’s inspector general, in part because the incident involves such senior officials, a law enforcement official said.

So the officials who crashed the car can't follow the law. And the officers who found them, let them go without sobriety testing them, so they can't follow the law. Is there anybody who is guarding the president or guarding the White House who know what they are doing?

Fascinating. Partisan blowhard says partisan blowhard things.

Ingraham or Tim?

I'm a whole lot of things; partisan isn't one of them.

I tend to believe you.

Still, starting a thread to call out a known and recognized partisan blowhard for partisan blowharding is an act that most neutral parties would find a waste of time.

I thought it was interesting.

This should be in your thread. Not for the general public.
