Everywhere you see Obama, there is US Secret Service Special Agent Joe Clancy.
He was the serious looking bald guy setting next to Obama at Notre Dame this afternoon.

10. Me too. I have a cousin who did that work for many years. He's still in government, but
he's nearing retirement and driving a desk.

It's a hard job, they can't really tell you much about it while they're doing it, either. Often, you find out what they were up to when you see them on TV!

6. I think it's disturbing that someone is tracking all of the SS agents
and other protective measures

12. Don't worry. They switch out agents every so often just for that reason.
Most of the agents I know like the presidentail duty, but only for a short time. It's very very stressfull as you can imagine!

14. Obama's getting so gray!
I hadn't noticed it until I saw those Notre Dame pictures.

And what's that Hitler salute? A blessing?

This ritualistic behavior gets creepier and creepier...................

16. Creepier, even ........
Does anyone realize what they're doing?

Do we not have any sense of history? What is wrong with people?

19. Yeah, but events in Europe
during the mid-twentieth century put a whole different gloss on it. Know what I mean?

17. I guess I would have probably kept his secret role, secret...even when in plain sight.
