A Little Education For OT

Obama was also a United States Senator and already working under a government position which required him to have taken an oath of office to protect the constitution and the country and completed a background/clearance check...



Under the current system, congressional staff members and defense industry employees must go through rigorous background checks and an interviewing process before receiving a security clearance that gives them access to sensitive national security information.

If those investigations uncover anything that could pose a risk to national security, including associations with anyone who has a criminal background, a history of alcoholism, financial problems or other issues, security clearance could be denied, Ashdown said. Another Washington official said Friday that the security screening process becomes even more stringent depending on the degree of sensitivity of the information to which a staffer may need access.

Meanwhile, members of Congress are subject to no such background investigations. Instead, once they are elected to office, they take an oath not to reveal national secrets. That's it, both Ashdown and a former congressional staffer who worked on the Hill for more than 30 years said Friday.

"Members get security clearance by right of the fact that they got elected," said Winslow Wheeler, who worked on Capitol Hill for 31 years for both Democrats and Republicans.

DUMBAZZ :roll: I think my 7 year old knew this.................... :roll:

In other words, I have as much security clearance as Buckwheat. Probably more, since I went through an FBI check for an FFL. :lol: :lol:

I am going to keep this at the top so that OT will acknowledge/realize his stupidity instead of slinking off with his tail between his legs like a old whipped dog. :lol: :lol:

Actually I was aware of that too-- because that is why some in Congress do not get the surpersecretive stuff given to them very often... Just a brainfart...

But Obama was a member of the government- took an oath of office and already had access to much of the intelligence briefings thru the Senate-- whereas Romney is just an unemployed multimillionaire....

Actually he's a "retired multimillionaire". Now he gives away HIS money as he wishes. I'd think everyone hopes someday to be able to do the same.

You are a liar. You actually thought that Senators and House Reps had security clearance. You would not have said it if you didn't. Why lie when you're caught redhanded? :roll:

Well you're going to believe what ever you want to ...But I have a sister that now works doing those type background checks for security clearances and we did discuss that... They do checks on Congressional employees- but not on the elected officials....I just forgot about it...

It has been suggested to make everyone undergo a background check- but that is what the voters are supposed to do...
And some of those opposing the loudest having the FBI investigating their background have been those KKK brothers of yours that want no one knowing what they did in their past....

Phuck you. You can't turn your ignorance around on me. You claimed Buckwheat had passed a Security Clearance and he did not. You didn't forget about schitt. You lied for the 7th million time. End of story. :roll:

He's told so many lies that he has no chance of keeping them straight in his alcohol pickled brain. :wink:

To paraphrase Dean Wormer, "Old, fat, drunk, & stupid is no way to go through life"......

Saying that he knew Congressmen didn't have security clearances but forgot about it.................... is one of his biggest lies yet. He is one sleazy human.

We had a teacher in high school that was writing some formula on the blackboard. It was wrong, but he thought it was right. The students proved that he was wrong with the textbook, and then the teacher started back-peddling. He said he was just doing that to test us. Our B.S. Flag was flying high, and we told him he was wrong and he knew it. That man never had our respect after that incident.
