Which has been true since the Secret
Service was drafted to protect the
president (not their first job by the
way).  Growing up in America it was
drilled into us, well, my generation at
least, that if you're going to talk bad
about the President, DO NOT make
threats against his or her life in
public where other can hear you, or you
will find yourself quickly receiving a
visit from them.

That is why I've always been careful in
my "Bush Bashing" as I don't really
relish a visit from them (unless it's
to offer me a job because that would be
cool).  I've always limited it to his
job performance (or my opinion there
of) and not as a personal attack
against the man himself, or the job he
holds (of which I have great respect
for).

Although some comments slip through
while watching news conferences, but
they did that with Clinton too. :o)
