Gun Grabbers Want Secret Service Protection

For Obama, the agency provided coverage for 303 protection days and 444 protective visits. For Clinton, the agency provided coverage for 267 protections days and 418 protective visits.

The current cost per day of protecting a candidate is about $38,000 for the agency.

Sullivan expects that to rise to the agencys estimate of $44,000 per day by the end of the campaign.

You do the math. Read the rest here.

At least McCain has not requested protection so far. The democrats are happy to leave you without protection, but they sure are generous with their own safety.

My gun club is having an event this weekend. Any of the candidates would be welcome. I suspect that Hilbama would assume that it'd be dangerous.

If the gun grabbers preach the world will be safer without guns, why do all of them have CHLs and  heavily armed body guards........chris3

Ah, you don't quite have their ideas right.  The world would be safer if you didn't have guns.  Guns for the Elitists are fine.

Yes. Rosie Loudmouth has armed bodyguards for her kids.

It's only the peasants they don't want to be armed.

its called a Conceled Weapon Permit. they will need several for all that state hopping (and maybe learn why we gun nuts would want a CWP that is country wide) and plenty of training.




of course, that would be to much work....

Unpossible. A CCW requires personal responsibility. Democrats are allergic.

Don't worry about such illnesses. The natural antidote to personal responsibility is more, and more-intrusive government. If that fails, there is a subchapter of Hilliarycare that will cure all allergies by outlawing them. Stroke of the pen, cure of the disease, kind-of cool...

Hill just uses them for baggage handlers. Why, they couldn't even protect her from sniper fire in Bosnia.
Experience is the thing you have left when everything else is gone.
