Typical right wing nut Apache is... I spanked him before. ;-)

While what a handful of Secret Service guys did was wrong, I bet most don't know that prostitution is LEGAL in Coumbia.

Are you saying what the Secret Service did was wrong or legal, or wrong but legal there, or wrong in the Bible so always wrong?

Proverbs 7:24-27
King James Version (KJV)

24Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth.

25Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.

26For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her.

27Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.

Since he decided to reply to me and then block me as he has also done to several others, that kinda wipes out all his BS fairy tales of bravery and being related to Cochise if you ask me!. The jerk can only shoot behind the backs of others in the dark and then run for cover and hide. He is obviously a coward and insecure and hasn't one hair in common with any Native Indigenous Indians in my opinion..

I butted heads with him on Yahoo Buzz as well as here, although his blocking me is new. All he likes to do is insult people and post right wing graphics, he's an ignorant coward at that. He once accused me of being another person from Buzz claiming that his Apache tracking skills were great when in fact they were obviously flawed since I've only used one name both on the Buzz and now here.

Right wingers are just stupid slugs and try to blame Obama for everything. Of course when Bush was routinely messing up... major things like letting the 911 attacks happen, starting a undeclared war, allowing bodies to float past in the streets of a major city after a hurricane, the right wing crowd didn't say boo.

There's about 3 million federal employees. To expect any president to know what each of them is up to 24/7 is the comment of some right wing raving loon.

The secret service scandals has been discussed around many countries, especially among the officers in the Cartagena, Colombia.it has been a joke . It will have a negative effect on the reputation of America and it means shame to Obama. In fact, i would like to say that there are bad seeds in every profession in every country. Unfortunately, the scandal in America is exposed.

This is really a tempest in a teapot. For Colombia to bitch about corruption in a joke. How fast we forget a short time ago Colombia was the drug making captial of the world and the entire police and military were for sale to the highest bidding drug lord as is still true in many so-called banana republics.

It's ANOTHER example of President 0bama's lack of leadership.

For over a year now, he has been campaigning and hasn't kept an eye on the shop.

Over 2,000 guns go to Mexican drug cartels from the US Government killing hundreds of Mexicans and 2 US Boarder Patrol Agents:
WHERE WAS OBAMA?

The Tax payer gave Obama donors @ Solyndra 540 MILLION DOLLARS and they went bankrupt... AFTER THE PHOTO-OP at SOLYNDRA:
WHERE WAS OBAMA?

The partying at the GSA and the waste of MILLIONS of TAX PAYERS HARD EARNED MONEY was brought to the attention of the White House A YEAR AGO:
WHERE WAS OBAMA?

It's more important for him to get re-elected than to GOVERN.

The DEMOCRAT LEAD Senate hasn't produced a budget FOR OVER THREE YEARS! A REAL President would have had his Democratic leader Reid PASS A BUDGET if he cared about running the Country instead of running a re-election campaign.

Considering our deficit and all the problems it brings, yes this is a full-blown disaster for the administration. Seeing money spent like this is enraging. It has to stop, and we're still in the early stages of this story. It will definitely hurt him. It greatly disturbs me.

oh lord, cause it was the governments money right? Smh its legal there and its was their own money, how disturbing is out that millions of american men sleep with little girls for money...that's what I'm concerned about, not a perfectly legal transaction that occurred in another country

This ranks a 10 on the sillyness scale. Sounds like the right wing crowd is desperate to try to smear Obama with what's about a handful of guys with their own money on their off time buying the services of local prostitutes where oh... it's perfectly legal. Duh!

What is more alarming is what was thought was the government watch dog arm, the GSA got caught blowing TAXPAYER money on lavish parties and outlings. Still, heads rolled quickly as soon as brought to light.

The reality is when you have over 3,000,000 federal employess not counting the military or postal service there's going to be some bad apples, some kooks, pervs, whatever. Trying to blame Obama for a few people screwing up is like blaming the president of GM for some jerk not putting oil in a car as it came off the line.

What are you suggesting? Should the president who has his hands full doing the hardest job in the world do a bed check personally on all 3,000,000 employees, have them phone in daily, just what to you ding dongs expect. I'm serious.

reply
Helene to Mr. Won... 2012/04/20 14:38:40

I am married to a CEO of a company with 800 employees. Despite that, and being on the road a great deal, he has mandated policies for security reasons with a zero tolerance. He had to fire a seasoned employee with cause for making a bad judgement. This person worked in a different office, did not immediately report to my husband but the message to the company after his firing was clear. You have no chances to screw up when dealing with sensitive information. Obama saying he will be "angry" is not the reaction you would expect from a real leader. Obama never had any discipline as a child.
