I want you to stop and think about this and its meaning . Bush will be the
only ex-president, who will not be protected by the Secret Service for his lifetime. I don't know why but that gives me an eerie feeling. It could mean many things but I don't think any of them are good.

Which U.S. president is ineligible to receive lifetime Secret Service protection?
All are eligible Your Answer
Gerald Ford
George W. Bush Correct Answer
Bill Clinton
George W. Bush is ineligible to receive lifetime Secret Service protection. In 1994, Congress passed legislation stating that presidents elected to office after January 1, 1997, will receive Secret Service protection for 10 years after leaving office.

1. He will never lose protection
Bushco are scared sh**less about interactions with the masses. So either the law will change or it will be ignored. Or :scared: he will never leave...

3. No real effect. He will disappear from public view into some
alcohol/drug rehab program.

When he does show his sick self, it will only be in front of groups that are even more tightly controlled than he does now.

Plus, with the billions stolen from the public treasury, he can easily afford private protection. Just hire some Haliburton mercs. Yes, it goes against the puke principle of raping the public, but he's chickenshit enough to go against his principles to protect his own ass.

Of course, we can always hope.....
