Biden motorcade cars kill pedestrian
« on: November 12, 2009, 10:19:00 AM »
Two Secret Service employees driving along the Suitland Parkway struck and killed a man early Wednesday morning in the vehicles the agency uses to transport Vice President Joe Biden.
 
Biden was not in either the armored SUV or limousine at the time of the crash.

Didn't this happen with Hillary's motorcade a couple years ago?  What is with Democrats killing pedestrians with cars?

They've got a lot of Government-owned Detroit iron to move, they don't want people walking.

My son is a SS agent and I can assure you that NO ONE is more distressed over this than the agent driving that vehicle.  And we need to wait and get the determination from the scene reconstruction as to who was at fault.  These guys are given EXTENSIVE driving training and I'm sure are exceptionally cautious and careful drivers because they often have the president, vice-president or other VIP's as their "cargo".

If the agent was at fault, he will and should be treated the same as any other driver responsible for a vehicular death.

Joe was drunk again and driving the car himself.

Prayers for all involved.  It's a terrible accident, nothing more.
