How much do you think this cost?
I've seen this on several blogs now, but nobody has mentioned one thing.
NO President goes anywhere, to meet anyone without everyone and everything being examined far in advance.
It's not like Rocky Obama decided to just hang with the peasants on the way to the links.
Because the Secret Service won't even let him walk in Central Park.
Or check out the Arugula prices.
Or drive the 5-MPG limo to the car wash so he can mingle with his peeps.

ReplyDeletePrecisely and you can bet everyone of those cameras were examined thoroughly.
That was so "spontaneous" that there was police tape up blocking areas off and extra Park Police assigned there. The crowd was also much larger and whiter that one typically sees at the Lincoln Memorial during the day. Normally it would have been school groups and senior citizen tourists. Can you say Astroturf?
ReplyDeleteOh, and the Lincoln would have stayed open even with a shutdown. It's open 24/7/365, and there aren't even any gates to close it. The bookstore might close, but the monument chamber and grounds would have still been accessible.
