Obama ditches White house Press Corps for hours




Obama: We Don’t know where he is or where he’s going or what he's doing

Reporters and photographers didn't have a chance to see him or his vehicle to verify his presence at any location.

Although nobody outside the White House or the press may have noticed, Obama broke years of tradition.

Small things often mean something. In 1998 a little know figure by the name of Osama bin Laden declared war on the United States of America. But because America is powerful and al Qaeda wasn’t perceived as a threat because they were so insignificantly small we overlooked the threat.

On April 10, 2010 the president of the United States of America snuck out of the White house without the White house press corps to record his every move. Why? (see story)

There must have been a good reason for breaking years of protocol. No, there was only a cover story that the president awakened Saturday morning and on a whim decided to gather up a regiment of secret service men to attend one of his daughter’s soccer games. Humm…

Now just think of the logistics of that. Didn’t this president just say in an interview days ago that he and his wife hadn’t chosen a church in D.C. yet because of the imposition it would cause a church if the president of the United States were in attendance? You think his presence and security detail might distract from a little girls soccer game just a little? Anyone there who took a picture please contact me.

When the White House press corps were made aware that the president wasn’t on the White house premises they gathered to pursue the president. But when they arrived at the supposed location they were informed, Oh too late the game’s over the president is going back to the White house. Humm…

The White House press corps traditionally travels with the president anywhere he goes, inside and outside the country, to report on the president's activities for the benefit of informing the public and for historical record.--Associated Press


Why would the most open and transparent president in the history of the United States of America feel the need to clandestinely leave the White house grounds for hours without the American people knowing exactly where he was and what he was doing?

So my question to you reader is, does it make me a conspiracy theorist to surmise that this is highly unusual behavior for the president of the United States of America? And though is seems small and insignificant right now, does this portend of something of significantly greater import?

My instincts tell me that we will discover something unusual occurring in the next days, weeks or month. but will we ever be able to connect it to this missed two hours of the president’s whereabouts?

Intriguing I think, but what do you think?
