CULTURE: Secret Service Turn a Blind Eye to Bush Purse Snatching

Last week, First Daughter Barbara Bush was robbed by some stealthy Argentines. While the Bush daughter was dining at a restaurant in the San Telmo district of Buenos Aires, a pair of thieves managed to remove the victim's purse and cell phone from under the table while a detail of Secret Service Agents stood guard nearby. The Secret Service failed to notice the crime being committed.



There's really nothing they could have done. According to Chuck Vance, a former agent, the theft is minor and likely a diversion for possible kidnapping. Agents are not responsible for the possessions of the person being guarded.

However, if I had the most highly trained body guards in the world, I'd want at least one trying to get my goddamn wallet back. I mean she has more than one, right? I'd probably even wanna call the play, like, "Lock and load boys. QuickKick, you and SnakeEyes go get that guy, he looked like Zartan. Me, Lady Jay, and Duke will rendez-vous back at HQ!" You know, they've gotta have cool lingo. Jobs should have cooler lingo.



The White House and Secret Service declined to comment on the matter, because they don't do that on this sort of stuff. Trust me, watch some West Wing reruns.



According to CNN, a law-enforcement source briefed on the incident assures the public that, "she was never out of her security detail's line of sight. Security experts say that agents are there to protect people, not their stuff."



Agents deleted the contents of the cell phone remotely upon learning its disappearance. I bet it had some pretty cool numbers in it.

pwned

and now we know! and Knowing is Half the Battle!

"Yes, Mr. Chief of Security, what would you like to say, in regards to the recent robbery of the president's daughter?"

"As I've stated, I'd like to say *urrrr hmmmm mumble, mumble, cough*. Next question, please; we are VERY busy. Ooops! Out of time. You may direct any and all further inquiries to that brick wall, which stands to our immediate left. Thank you."

When are Jenna and not Jenna going to enlist to fight daddy's war?

I think they are signed up under the Delayed Entry Program, using the buddy system. They need money for college, since the wealthiest nation on the planet can't seem to un-fuck itself and socialize education and medicine. Enjoy those trips to the school clinic, girls... Here's a hint: you will always be diagnosed with a venereal disease - even if you are a virgin. Cheers.

That's the sort of thing I would want my bodyguard to notice. Like a guy getting close enough to me to steal my purse...if I carried one. Unless they left them unatended and went to the bathroom, which is pretty stupid.

I'm waiting for the nude-shots, from Jenna & Babs running naked thru the hall of their hotel floor, to surface. Wonkette implied that the one occurred (the nude sprints), & I have to think somebody took pictures.

they were probably getting laid when the purse snatching occured. we're just hearing a fabricated story so the girls don't get in trouble with poppa daddy.

Agreed, he's the only one who can have sex with them.

i bet they looked at the bushie panties when they were under the table. Aye Carumba!!!

That wasn't the only thing that happened in argentina

One of the agents got into an "altercation" after a night on the town and was beaten, the television news organisation has said, citing police reports.
