Really Politico?

http://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/really-politico

I'm wondering what the editors at Politico were thinking when they let through this bizarre line about Obama being such an abysmal manager that only his death by assassination is likely to bring about needed reform of the Secret Service.
 
The piece in question is a quickly published piece in Politico Magazine by Ronald Kessler.
 
Kessler is a legitimate expert on national law enforcement and intelligence agencies. He's written many books on these topics. I actually interviewed him a couple times for pieces I wrote just after 9/11 on post-attack preparedness, intelligence sharing and related topics. But over the last decade he's made a hard veer to the right, with a heavy dose of Obama-hating conspiracy mongering.

So here's the kicker at the end of the piece.

Agents tell me it’s a miracle an assassination has not already occurred. Sadly, given Obama’s colossal lack of management judgment, that calamity may be the only catalyst that will reform the Secret Service.
 
Read that a few times.

1. I'm particularly fond of Charles Pierce's name for Politico - "Tiger Beat on the Potomac".

Uh, didn't the primitives used to love Politico?

One wonders what's up with this change of mind.

2. A truly shocking statement, but then you knew

that sooner or later (well, sooner rather than later) the President would be blamed for his failure to prevent any acts committed against himself. The assassination fantasy is taking it to the next level.
 
I'm dumbstruck.

4. My My, is the RW hate machine having a red letter week for themselvs...........

This would be a good time for Obama's dog to leave a calling card on the Whit House lawn.

Any bets on how many of the buggers would have ODS inspired heart attacks personalizing that scandal story outline?

An assassination hasn't been attempted solely because nobody, NOBODY, want's that brainiac Slow Joe Biden anywhere near the top slot.

The Obumbler knew exactly what he was doing when he chose the Idiot 'Plugs' for his running mate. Best. insurance. policy. EVAH!

The only people that might want it to happen are on the left.  They wouldn't mind Obama becoming a martyr for their cause since he has been a SCOAMF as president.

Uh-huh....  coming from the "complete lack of self-awareness" crowd.  And.....

...how does one read an assassination fantasy into that? 

OK, kidding.  We know the answer to that.

I said at the beginning of this down escalator to hell, that I pray no one offs him.  It would be far worse than the beatification of St. Kennedy.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

I'd be more worried about one of the asskissers actually eating said 'calling card.' :puke: :bolt: :pokingpoop:

The lack of attention to Obama's security is an example of how his whole Administration has performed.
