How to make President safe again (Opinion) - CNN.com
The knee jerk reaction to blame President Bush for everything from the plague to the current Ebola situation has become sort of the party line recently.

I suggest that anyone who gets sucked into this stuff, do some research. The Secret Service, after 9/11 and all the investigations done, had to be involved in the new department of Homeland Security or we were risking all the errors made PRIOR to 9/11 and nobody talking to each other. They needed to be there and despite the political haggling that just amazes me concerning such a badly run group now blaming Bush, everyone including the democrats were on board.
