Bizarro Secret Service
« on: October 03, 2009, 04:42:44 PM »

For years, when I thought of secret service, I may have thought of big white guys wearing dark sunglasses pressing a finger to their ear so as to be able to hear better.  No longer, though.  Obama has given them a makeover.

Black dudes wearing white sunglasses and bluetooth style headsets* now guard the POTUS.

*broad assumption that these guys are secret service and not Kanye West's hired apologist crew.

I actually went on a tour of the White House while Bush was president and the White/Black ratio of the SS was fairly even. Oh, and they were all huge and carrying submachineguns.

"Rio 2016"! I lol'd.

Heh, my fifth grade class went on a field trip to the white house during the Carter administration.  And you know how some people put popcorn strings on their xmas trees?  Well the Carters had peanut strings on theirs.
