Stop the Presses: Blackwater Protected Obama in Afghanistan !!!

Blackwater Got the Gig Securing Obama in Afghanistan

Sen. Barack Obama has not been a fan of private police like Blackwater in war zones, and some news outlets even reported that they were spurned for his trip last week to Afghanistan and Iraq. But Whispers confirms that Blackwater did handle the Democratic presidential candidate's security in Afghanistan and helped out in Iraq. What's more, Obama was overheard saying: "Blackwater is getting a bad rap." Since everything appeared to go swimmingly, maybe he will take firms like Blackwater out of his sights, the company's supporters hope.

"Obama: 'This isn't the Blackwater that I knew!'"


And LJ of California writes (after tightening the chin strap on his tinfoil hat)

The Constitution has been eviscerated by this administration.... they have their own Supreme Court and own PRIVATE army. What happens when Bush/Cheney decide they DON'T want to leave office????? When the "higher voice" tells him to stay in office.....


And the Virginian Pilot editors take more Valium.
