What Presidential Secret Service Agents Really Think About The Presidents

Common Sense Commentary: It is common knowledge to all realists that 99% of famous and powerful people, especially politicians are never what they appear to be on the surface, what they portray themselves to be and want the people to think. That being true, a few of our most recent presidents were, in fact, kind and descent people. No one sees this as clearly as the secret service agents who are constantly close to our presidents almost every day for four or eight years. While they work for the presidents they are duty bound not to say anything negative about that president even if it is immoral, dishonest, disgusting or whatever. However, after their tour of duty is ended, they do talk, especially to each other, about their favorite and unfavored presidents. Here is a secret service agent's accumulated bottom line, among these agents, of recent presidents....  what they thought of the president and his wife, whom they served. RB



A  comparison of presidents from a Secret service agents point of view. Interesting snippets from Ronald Kessler's book about our presidents. 


JOHN & JACQUELINE KENNEDY

*A philanderer of the highest order. *

*She ordered the kitchen help to save all the left-over wine during a State dinner, mixed it with fresh wine and served again during the next White House occasion.*



LYNDON & LADYBIRD JOHNSON


*Another philanderer of the highest order. In addition, LBJ was as crude as the day is long. Both JFK and LBJ kept a lot of women in the White House for extramarital affairs and both had set up early warning systems to alert them if/when their wives were nearby. Both were promiscuous and oversexed men.*

*She was either naive or just pretended to not know about her husband's many liaisons.*


RICHARD & PAT  NIXON

*A "moral" man but very odd, weird, paranoid. He had a horrible relationship with his family and was almost a recluse.*

*She was quiet most of the time.*


SPIRO AGNEW

*Nice, decent man. Everyone in the Secret Service was surprised by his downfall.*


GERALD & BETTY  FORD

*A true gentlemen who treated the Secret Service with respect and dignity. He had a great sense of humor.  *

*She drank a lot!*


JIMMY & ROSALYN  CARTER

*A complete phony who would portray one picture of himself to public and very different in private e.g. would be shown carrying his own luggage but the suitcases were always empty. He kept empty ones just for photo ops. He wanted people to see him as pious and a non-drinker but he and his family drank alcohol a lot! He had disdain for the Secret Service and was very irresponsible with the "football" with nuclear codes. He didn't think it was a big deal and would keep military aides at a great distance. Often did not acknowledge the presence of Secret Service personnel assigned to serve him.*

*She mostly did her own  thing.*


RONALD & NANCY  REAGAN

*The real deal, moral, honest, respectful and dignified. They treated Secret Service and everyone else with respect and honor, thanked everyone all the time. He took the time to know everyone on a personal level. One favorite story was early in his Presidency when he came out of his room with a pistol tucked on his  hip. The agent in charge asked: "Why the pistol, Mr. President?" He replied, "In case you boys can't get the job done, I can help." It was common for him to carry a pistol. When he met with Gorbachev, he had a pistol in his briefcase.

*She was very nice but very protective of the President and the Secret Service was often caught in the middle. She tried hard to control what he ate. He would say to the agent, "Come on, you gotta help me out." The Reagans drank wine during State dinners and special occasions only otherwise they shunned alcohol.  The Secret Service could count on one hand the times they were served wine during family dinner. For all the fake bluster of the Carters, the  Reagans were the ones who lived life as genuinely moral  people.*


GEORGE H. & BARBARA  BUSH

*Extremely kind and considerate, always respectful. Took great care in making sure the agents' comforts were taken care of. They even brought them meals. One time she brought warm clothes to agents standing outside at Kennebunkport . One was given a warm hat and, when he tried to say "no thanks" even though he was obviously freezing, the President said "Son, don't argue with the First  Lady. Put the hat on." He was the most prompt of the Presidents. He ran the White House like a well-oiled machine.*

*She ruled the house and spoke her  mind.*


BILL & HILLARY  CLINTON

*Presidency was one giant party.  Not trustworthy. He was nice mainly because he wanted everyone to like him but to him life is just one big game and party. Everyone knows about his sexuality.*

*She is another phony. Her personality would change the instant cameras were near. She hated with open disdain the military and Secret Service. She was another who felt  people were there to serve her. She was always trying to keep tabs on Bill Clinton.*


ALBERT GORE 

* An egotistical ass who was once  overheard by his Secret Service detail lecturing his son that he needed  to do better in school or he would end up like these guys, pointing to  the agents.*


GEORGE W. & LAURA  BUSH 

*The Secret Service loved him and Laura Bush. He was also the most physically in shape who had a very strict workout regimen. The Bushes made sure their entire administrative and household staff understood that they were to respect and be considerate of the Secret Service.*

*She was one of the nicest First Ladies, if not the nicest. She never had any harsh word to say about anyone.*


*BARACK & MICHELLE  OBAMA

* Clinton all over again - hates the military and looks down on the Secret Service. He is egotistical and cunning. He looks you in the eye and appears to agree with you but turns around and does the opposite. He has temper tantrums.*

*She is a complete bitch who basically hates anybody who is not black, hates the military and looks at the Secret Service as servants.*


A TRUE STORY ABOUT GEN McChrystal's  resignation in Obama's office, Worth reading from Gen McChrystal's book!

"NEVER STAND IN LINE AGAIN"  (Gen. Stanley McChrystal)

Some men carry and handle their diplomacy better than others........

When former U.S. Military commander in Afghanistan, Stanley McChrystal, was called into the Oval Office by Barack Obama, he knew things weren't going to go well when the President accused him of not supporting him in his political role as President.

"It's not my job to support you as a politician, Mr. President, it's my job to support you as Commander-in-Chief," McChrystal replied, and he handed Obama his resignation.

Not satisfied with accepting McChrystal's resignation the President made a cheap parting shot. "I bet when I die you'll be happy to pee on my grave."

The General saluted. "Mr. President, I always told myself after leaving the Army I'd never stand in line again."
