What Assassination Attempts?

I thought the media keeps telling us that because Obama is black, he is the most targeted American President for assassination evah? Because all us white guys are just so racist that threats against Dear Leader are way up? Not so, as it turns out.

I haven’t blogged about the party crashers at the White House because its a non-story to me. Rich liberals show up at one of Obama’s daily parties without a hallpass? Ppppbthh! Don’t care.

But it turns out that Congress cares who gets access to the President, and they called a hearing to investigate. While grilling Mark Sullivan, the head of the US Secret Service about what went wrong, Elanor Holmes Norton, the fat black democrat woman representing DC asked for a confirmation that Barack Obama was the most targeted President evah because he was black, and Sullivan told her this was not true.

From the Union Leader here:

Sullivan said there was no threat to Obama, noting that “last week we took him to a basketball game, and there was 5,000 people sitting around the President.”

In response to a question from Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton, D-D.C., he said Obama had not had an extraordinary number of threats against his life, contrary to her assertion, and said that Obama had received no more such threats at this point in his term than his two predecessors.

Wow. So either the Press is lying about the elevated threat, or this lifelong Secret Service specialist responsible for protecting the President’s life and securing our nation’s banking assets is lying. Who is the liar here?
