When I was selected to the Presidential Protective Division, I attributed my desire to join the first lady’s detail to those moments with Mrs. Bush. I wanted to protect the institution of the first lady to ensure that an administration’s compassion and conscience would never be jeopardized.

With the utmost seriousness, Secret Service agents assigned to the first lady take the sacred responsibility of protecting a political and cultural icon, knowing full well that any harm that comes to the first lady could impede the President’s ability to govern.

The United States Secret Service code name for Barbara Bush was “Tranquility.” It exemplified her demeanor and its calming, humanizing and gentle effect on those around her. She will be forever missed.


Some photos in Houston today at St. Martin’s, where admirers of Mrs. Bush are paying final respects. Anyone is welcome to visit. Mrs. Bush’s funeral will be tomorrow.

I think Hillary and Michelle’s details have said similar things but with a different meaning.

More black folks in those few pictures than I would have imagined went to the entire service.

Their details might be too busy digging the holes to be at the viewing.

From talking with a former Secret Service agent, I can assure you Hillary’s detail will celebrate the day she dies.

Absolutely beautiful and classy! Like the lady herself!

Take these photos and stick them down the throat of that piece of crap from Fresno State. This 'racist' First Lady is receiving the respects and flowers of a whole lot of 'colored folk.'

And to the person who downvoted the OP, go jump off a ravine!

Nice to see Ben Carson out there. He's certainly one of the least-heard-from cabinet members out there. Just getting the job done!

Barbara Bush is being the treated the way she treated others all of her life.

With dignity and respect.

This type of honor is earned, not bestowed by the position you hold.

Out of respect for a thread about Mrs. Bush, I will only say they will be doing something at the grave site other than honoring her.

They are afraid that they maybe reassigned to Hillary's detail. They may stay at the grave side for years.

A friend is a former secret service agent. African American man, and his son plays sports with my son. Professional family, kids are straight A students, respectful and very athletic. He loves to talk about the Bush family. Says they were normal people and respected those who protected them. He refuses to say anything about the Clintons. Not a single word.

I spent a couple of years in Arkansas, and knew a state senator that served during Bill's term as governor. My friend's silence, as a man l respect, tells me all l need to know.

I'm not going to do your homework for you. Put some effort into it and do it yourself. Here's a hint: the job he was hired to do.
