SS responds to claim college Pubs blocked from seeing Champ | ||
2013-07-27 | ||
The Secret Service pushed back Friday on complaints from a group of college Republicans who questioned why they were barred from a President Obama event earlier this week. According to a report on Campus Reform, the Missouri College Republicans said an officer told them they could not get in to see Obama's speech on Wednesday at their school for "security reasons." "I hate to make allegations but it was just very suspicious that we were not allowed in," one of them was quoted as saying. But the Secret Service put out a brief statement later Friday saying the event had reached capacity -- and that's why they were apparently blocked. Reached Republican capacity anyway.
Missouri College Republicans State Treasurer Courtney Scott, though, told Campus Reform that each of the students had a ticket and arrived early. "We followed all the rules," she said. Obviously you followed the old rules. | ||

#2 The Secret Service has become the lapdog , it seems. They are lying. I would suggest that the Secret Service works for the political boss at the time. Write the names down and when the Administration changes ( and it always does ) then get those files out for review...oh, and record the boss of that team's name as well. Clean House at Secret Service and see how they like it. Make it a "security" issue. |
