Obama's Motorcade Closing In On 45 Cars - Is That Really Necessary?

It's out of control.

However, the urban people elected him. They elected him even though he ran on a platform of EXPANDED GOVERNMENT and ardent statism.

Well, now he gets to expand the scope of his executive branch, and exaggerate our perception of its importance.

urban people, wow!

I find it ironic that they questioned if Dubya was scared that he had to ride around in what is basically a tank. Obama, loved by all apparently, rides around in the same tank and now this excess motorcade.

I guess he's gotta show the bling bling.

It's absolutely necessary when you have these crazy Tea Party characters running around...ABSOLUTELY

Yeah, because the last guy who shot and killed a president was a real hardcore libertarian fiscal conservative.

Hm, oh, wait, wasn't Oswald a communist?

Yeah, all of the following were Liberals of one form or another.

Lee Harvey Oswald.
FDR built the atomic bombs and Truman used them.
The KKK were Democrats.
John Wilkes Booth was a Confederate. A Democrat.

All presidents have their heavy number of motorcade, planes etc. Secret Service people, staff, more secret service. I guess this is what it has come to when people try to assassinate President Reagan or even some foreign diplomats.

Anything necessary to waste the dollars of the producers and to buy votes. Keep adding to the Trillions wasted...

Hey Car4life, name one thing the Tea Party has done thats crazy. Id say the Comu-Libs and the $7Trillion they've blown in 5 yrs will be considerably more crazy. Keep your head in the sand and your hand out...

Really, perhaps it was the Tea Party thugs hijacking of our government for 16 days after throwing their tantrum.

Or maybe its the civil war inside the GOP that cost us Billions during the shutdown.

And really, spending wise, do not make me remind you of Bush and his trillion dollar war, ohhhh and the housing crisis which led to the global recession of 2008.

Sure Obama has spent trillions which is required when running the greatest country on earth, he also saved us 3.6 trillion since being in office, cut 750,000 public service jobs to appease the republicans, and cut the deficit in half since being in office

I love how republicans love to complain about spending, yet they forget we had to spend to clean up their mess in Iraq and on Wall Street...

Thanks to the Obama Admin JP Morgan is finally being held accountable for their contribution to the mess in 08 and paying 13 billion in fines...a drop in the bucket but a start nonetheless.

I digress

Wow - you don't think the Tea Party has done anything crazy.....talk about having your head in the sand.....shutting down the government because they don't like Obamacare.....if they don't like the law, get enough people to vote your people in to office and repeal the law (not going to happen because most people think the TP people are nut jobs) don't shut down the government because you can't get your way....

Jay Z is being hired as a consultant

racist

classy bro, classy, real original too

It's the deciion of the Secret Service, not the Presidents.

This is all about his pathetic overcompensatory paranoia. Obama is MiLKing it for all he can get

THE BIGGER THE GOVERMNENT...the smaller the citizen

not a single one of the readers here have any clue what is necessary or not but I am enjoying reading about their ignorance

If it was Dubya the media would be screaming why he has to hide from the voters. Since its Jesus rolling on 22s, its necessary. Didn't he win the nobel price for not being George Bush Jr?

Obama rides around with all of this protection. In fact when he goes to get a hamburger he has all of this protection outside.

Too bad Obama didn't make sure Ambassador Stevens and the 3 others didn't have security in Benghazi, Libya.
