Did you know that the current GOP candidates for president are protected by the SS? They're not even in the office yet and they're wasting taxpayer dollars.



None of them have 25 agents following them around.


I think traveling within the US is a whole lot safer than traveling in Mexico.
35,000+ people have been killed in Mexico's war on drugs since 2008.

Only the winner of the primary gets SS protection.






Not true. At least two of them are already getting SS protection (Romney and Santorum).

Obama has his own money, you know... chances are that he funded the trip and paid the treasury from his own pocket.

they are at war with cartels 35,000+ people has died since 2008, that is more causalities than Iraq and Afghanistan combined.


25 agents need gear and armored suv's, plus they have support staff, that requires a C-17 or C-5 to haul all of it. also a smaller jet was probably used to transport the VIP because she was probably to good to ride in the back of a military cargo jet. now those jets have an air force crew that is flying them plus fuel and maintenance costs.



And you wonder why they are trying to keep their visit secret?

I highly doubt they are prancing around in a giant convo in a country infested with drug lords... they probably went very low-key with minimal security as to not make a scene with backup from Mexico.

They probably just really planned out the trip and have people set up strategically ready to act if something happens... the biggest thing they have is no one knows they are there... except now that people are outraged they are going to compromise the security of the first family.

they rented a whole hotel and then blocked off the surrounding city block to the general public.

maybe because 25 secret service agents aren't going to be able to fight off a company sized element of irregular drug kingpin soldiers. heck, 25 people is less than a quarter of the number of corpses they found in the latest mass grave down there. I'm sure the president would rather NOT have his child held ransom by a drug lord?

just sayin here.



this country is broke, and the president thinks it ok to send his child on a vacation that costs runs into the millions.

I am betting they took a C-17 to haul all the armored suvs and vehicles and a smaller jet was need to haul that group of people to Mexico, then the fact they probably had to rent the whole hotel,also never mind the per diem and salaries of all the staff involved.

just so a teenager gets to go to mexico with her friends.

president needs to learn to lead by example.



he never will, and soo many americans/posters will just keep drinking what he pours. it's sad really that soo many are just numb to the crap around them.

Does no one even understand what the secret service does? Their mission is to pretty much protect stuff like this.

They work covertly and strategically... they send people in before secure a location and hide out behind the scene. They are not the military... they do not work with a show of force.
