Sky News (British 24/7 news channel) is reporting a breaking news that the U.S. Government is saying they have disrupted a plot to assassinate Barack Obama (they are citing A.P.).
Any truth in that?

no word here...hmmmm....
Its funny, a co-worker of mine already started talking about this scenario. She says, if Barack were to be assasinated, why wait until he wins the Presidency?
He'll never be more vulnerable then he is now. Unless of course one plans to use him as a martyr for another agenda...
Could they be referring to the Denver plot back in August?
wrong link, LeBomb.
Hehehehe..............Slomo posted at the same time.
I personally figured you would see alot of plot attempts.
I was just showing the headline at the top of the page.
Wait until he's elected. One-third of this country legitimately believes he's some sort of Marxist Muslim Manchurian. Don't ask me logically how that works, but it's pretty scary.
I wonder if he'll have his own ObamaMobile like the pope?
"BREAKING NEWS: ATF says it disrupted skinhead plot in Tenn., Ark. to assassinate Obama"
I have faith that nothing will happen to Obama.

WASHINGTON – The ATF says it has broken up a plot to assassinate Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and shoot or decapitate 102 black people in a Tennessee murder spree.
In court records unsealed Monday, agents said they disrupted plans to rob a gun store and target an unnamed but predominantly African-American high school by two neo-Nazi skinheads.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.

(This version CORRECTS APNewsNow; corrects word to 'but' sted of by in 2nd graf. Will be led.)
I seriously hope, for the good of this country, that nothing happens to Obama.
I can't agree with you more. That is the last thing this country needs.
If anything happens to Obama, we ABSOLUTELY ABSOLUTELY MUST protect Joe Biden.

IMO, I'd put the chances at an assassination attempt on Obama at around 30% or so.
Some racist nutcase, or some religous zealot who thinks he's the anti-Christ..., or some political nutcase who thinks he's the second coming of Stalin.
It's more than likely that there are already plots to kill him that haven't been found out. Whether they are actually able to attempt them is another story.
Are you saying Obama is good for this country ? The United States - the one based on the Cons ution ?
I'd like to have the same feeling. But given the substantial polarization of our society on matters of politics, the seemingly unprecedented rancor of our political discourse as a result of that divide, and the belief (by extremists on both sides) that a win in November by the other would have all sorts of bad consequences that might be avoidable by assassination, I actually fear that something will happen to whomever wins the coming election.
1/3 ? Try half. and it isn't believe -- it is KNOW. All you have to do is listen to what he says.. where does wealth redistribution come from ? "from each according to his own ability ..to each according to his own need" ? cutting taxes for 95% when only 60% pay taxes -- that is not a tax cut - that is welfare and wealth redistribution.
Obviously Obama supporters who are trying to sway the election even more in favor of him.
Much like Ashley Todd and the people at McCain speeches yelling derogatory words. When will they give up?
No, I don't think that an alive Pres. Obama will be good for this country...but as bad as I think he'll be for the US, it'll be 10 times worse if he is assasinated.
PixelPusher beat me to it.![]()
nope - I dont think he is the second coming of Stalin. I think he is the second coming of Woodrow Wilson with a lot of FDR and a little bit of early days Malcolm X or modern day Farakhan.
They can call it the HopeMobile.![]()
