It certainly raises security concerns, but I just don't think there is any way to use it as a blast against the US or his administration.

The company that provided him had an address listed, several news agencies have gone there looking for answers but the company that occupies that address has never heard of SA Interpreters...
Is it really that easy?
This whole thing reeks of bullshitery, there is no way in hell that the SS would allow any anyone not thoroughly investigated or undocumented near one of the most hated American presidents in history.

Anyone representing what the President says should be vetted by appropriate competent people on his staff; not even getting into the Secret Service letting this nut see dragons and shit standing there right next to him without thoroughly checking him out. You disagree? You think we should just take the "word" of a third world country that everyone standing around the President, and representing what he says, is all good and fine? Come on.

Tareq and Michaele Salahi have established themselves as high-profile fixtures in the Beltway social scene, but there appears to be another side to this couple that includes a warning to consumers by the Commonwealth of Virginia to beware of their charity solicitations, and at least one socialite questioning the use of their 'charity' funds.

Originally posted by Chili View PostI don't disagree with that either, but that is also not what I was addressing. You're shifting topics. You did not mention security concerns, only that by way of that guy signing improperly, the administration being disrespectful and you being embarrassed to identify yourself American.
Hell, I am the one that mentioned the security concerns!

Originally posted by Baron View PostUm, well no, not really.
Eric:
Funny in an idiotic way, and embarrassing more than anything else. However, having a deaf person in my family, it really is fucking bullshit. It's basically signing the middle finger at a disabled portion of the populace. The disrespect this Administration shows to not only Americans, but the world, is unfathomably disgusting. I've never seen anything like it in my life. If I travel abroad, I will identify myself as a Texan, not an American.
The US / Obama administration had nothing to do with hiring the interpreter??
I mean, I'm not disagreeing with anything else you say, but don't see the two things as related.

There are statements being made that people are not sure how he obtained the security pass, though someone probably F-ed up and is just saying that to CYAOriginally posted by Sean88gtYou can take white off the list.

Jesus, you'd think I was being an Obama apologist.
My only point was that I don't see how the South African government hiring an inept sign language interpreter equals Obama slapping the face of disabled people.
He is an embarrassment, we definitely agree on that. I just didn't get how he could be blamed for this one.
BTW, if anyone should be embarrassed from the US, it should be the Secret Service.
