October 5-6, 2011 — Secret Service upset with Obama
Wayne Madsen Reports
WMR previously reported on President Obama’s arrogance while aboard Air Force One. In response to greetings from the pilot, co-pilot, and other crew members, Obama ignores them in a haughty manner. Vice President Joe Biden, who has also been on the receiving end of Obama’s numerous outbursts, is personally aware of the way Obama treats subordinates. Now, WMR has learned that the disgust with Obama’s off-camera behavior has extended to the normally unflappable members of his Secret Service security detail.
Normally, Secret Service agents assigned to presidential security duties are apolitical and sworn to secrecy, even after they and the president leave their positions. They are also immune from testifying in most criminal and civil court cases involving their official duties.
There was an exception to the oath of silence during the Clinton administration when many Secret Service agents would discuss in social settings the intense and sometimes physical fights between President Clinton and Hillary Clinton; with household items; including ash trays and lamps, often being thrown at the president by Mrs. Clinton. Secret Service regulations prohibited the agents from getting involved in what were called “domestic disputes.”
Obama now faces the unique situation in which one of his former Secret Service agents, Daniel Bongino, is running for the U.S. Senate in Maryland to oppose incumbent Democrat Ben Cardin in next year’s election. Bongino resigned from the Secret Service in May to challenge Cardin for his seat.







An election for President and Commander in Chief of the Military must strive to be above reproach. Our public institutions must give the public confidence that a presidential candidate has complied with the election process that is prescribed by our Constitution and laws. It is only after a presidential candidate satisfies the rules of such a process that he/she can expect members of the public, regardless of their party affiliations, to give him/her the respect that the Office of President so much deserves.
