I’m all for protecting the president with Secret Service wherever he goes (even Obama). But does he really need to be escorted by a SWAT team and two snipers when he goes gollfing on vacation at Martha’s Vineyard? He’s not exactly visiting the troops in a dangerous war zone or anything like that. This is just the latest example of how Obama is all about Obama and his flipping off teh American people.
Why does Obama need a SWAT team and two snipers when he golfs? |

BTw, you’ll notice in the Daily Mail UK‘s photos that there isn’t one picture of Obama with Moochelle. Where is she? Stuffing her face with lobster tails?
Obama was escorted to the Farm Neck Golf Club, in Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts, by a huge motorcade, which included a SWAT team and two snipers who peered out of an open trunk.
Sporting a United States Secret Service baseball cap, Obama seemed reasonably relaxed despite the hefty protection, laughing and chatting with his golfing buddies in between holes. Obama fled Washington for his family’s familiar vacation spot yesterday for a two-week summer break.‘I’m not going to give a particular timetable, because as I’ve said from the start, wherever and whenever U.S. personnel and facilities are threatened, it’s my obligation, my responsibility as Commander-in-Chief, to make sure that they are protected,’ Obama said.
‘I don’t think we are going to solve this problem in weeks,’ the President said, noting that rebuilding Iraq ‘is going to be a long-term project.’
The president said among his ‘immediate concerns’ was making ‘sure ISIL is not engaging in the actions that could cripple a country permanently.’
