If an Obama volunteer calls you, just say you support Obama — unless you want the Secret Service to show up at your door.

Good for the Secret Service. Some of the comments on that site you linked to are vile. God save Obama.

The Secret Service was doing its job. It’s the disgraceful, lying Obama volunteer who should be fined and jailed. I mean, she actually filed a false complaint with the Secret Service. I assume that’s illegal.
I didn’t read any comments on the site, but other people’s comments have no bearing on the facts in this news story.

I mean, she actually filed a false complaint with the Secret Service.
No she didn’t.
The story says
“Two federal agents arrived at Jessica Hughes’ home Thursday to ask her if she said, “I will never support Obama and he will wind up dead on a hospital floor.”
Hughes said her words were deliberately twisted by a volunteer who was apparently unhappy Hughes was rude during a phone conversation the two had.”
Saying that her words were “twisted” is not a denial, and even if she had denied it, that doesn’t make it false.
How can you possibly claim the Obama volunteer was lying without any evidence? She perceived a threat and reported it. She did the right thing.
Let’s be clear. It’s up to all Americans to protect the president, especially this one since he’s black and there are still a lot of hateful racists all over the place who might wish him harm.

Saying that she “twisted” the words was being kind. The woman said, “No, I don’t support him. Your guy is a socialist who voted four times in the state Senate to let little babies die in hospital closets; I think you should find something better to do with your time.”
She didn’t say anything about Obama being dead; she was talking about babies!

BTW, Obama isn’t president.

You don’t know what was said.
