Secret Service Taking Over Inauguration?

Recommended Posts

The Presidential Inauguration to be held on January 20, 2009, has been designated a National Special Security Event. This designation is also extended to the Swearing-in Ceremony at the U.S. Capitol, the Inaugural Parade, the official reviewing stand on Pennsylvania Avenue, and the Inaugural Balls. More security information can be found here >>>

Personally, I think it's a great idea: who, after all, has better logistics than the United States Secret Service?

Federal Police comes to my mind.

 

OH! Bill Richardson was knocked out by Hillary's group. NOT MY GROUP "The republicans".

Just want to make that REAL CLEAR.

I'm eating my words over my last comment: True, the Secret Service has top-notch logistics, but communication is a different thing apparently: the 56th Presidential inauguration was a nightmare: there was no comm. between the Secret Service, the Park Service Police and the National Guard (of whom there were many).

There was a catastrophic communication breakdown and suffice to say being there was bittersweet as it was a historical momemt to be sure, but the crowd control bordered on retarded.

Fool me once, shame on me; fool me twice ....
