Re: Perfectly reasonable response to needs of press; secret svc.

to quote about 10000 BBR users,

"if he wanted to live in a place with XYZ service, he should have checked it out BEFORE moving in"

or the famous

"If you don't like the service MOVE"

Strangely, I've never heard anyone say

"If you don't have cellular service phone Verizon and have the mobile disaster tower setup"

Complaints about this being unfair are childish. Even if the Secret Service hadn't requested this, the press corps would demand it as part of covering a presidential candidate.

Verizon, AT&T, etc do as much for any special event and the presidential campaign is a special event.

So, you as a lowly nobody wouldn't get the same treatment. Well, DUH!!! Run for president and you too can get this kind of coverage at a residence.

And the Washington Post story is just a long ongoing editorial policy that is anti-Republican party. They should have asked their own political reporters if they supported this? The answer would have been an unequivocal yes.
Would your thoughts on this be the same if the roles were reversed and it was Obama in the hot seat?

Oh, of course they do. But the issue raised was that media coverage demanded cell phone access which VZ and AT&T were simply providing for customer satisfaction purposes.

The reality is that the media pays and pays dearly for the access it requires, so it doesn't make sense that this would be a little freebie. My guess is that this was put in for the benefit of the campaign, as a little incentive to "remember who your friends are" when McCain either gets elected or goes back to the Senate.

He has 7 houses. Stay in one with service. No tears for him or his hag. As usual you only read enough to put together another bs response.Verizon said they would do the same for any of their customers. Take the blinders off.
Hag? I did not know you had enough personal dealings with her to know that she is one. Tell me, how did you get close enough to rich folks like the Obama's and McCain's to know for a fact that Mrs. McCain has personal traits that define a hag? Or is it because she has lived a fuller life than you and the years show on her exterior?

As far as Mrs. McCain's money buying houses, since I do not have a rich wife. I might settle for people like Antoin "Tony" Rezco helping me buy a mansion.....or maybe not, I have a bit more pride than that.

All depends on what dirt you want to look at and twist for spite. But name calling to try and show you are better than someone you do not know personally sort of reflects poorly upon you.
Maybe if you took off your red shaded glasses and put on the clear ones I wear you would see it like it is. I see a hag when I look at her and I stand by that. You know her well enough to say otherwise? You or anyone else on the net that thinks poorly of me has 0 effect on my life.

Ah...from that comment I assume then that (red being "republican") that she is a hag because she is not your political affiliation.

Either that or your boy/girlfriend had better watch out that the years do not affect them, since you are apparently visually oriented and people who look like they are more than 16 are not worthy of consideration. Hate to tell you this, but unless you terminate yourself fairly soon, you too will gain that appearance someday.

Oh? Now you not only know for a fact she is a hag but now you decide to add in addiction to help spin your reasoning. Well, not bad, one fact out of two tries.

I am still amazed that someone who is not (so it seems) in the circles that Obama and all those other rich folk out there are in ever got close enough to the McCains (or her anyway) that you know so much for a fact, even with the so called clear glasses you claim to have. I myself do not know her at all, so I do not judge her.

I just hope that your boy/girlfriend realizes how shallow you are when it comes to judging folks that you have never meet before it is too late. But since you seem so full of yourself that you apparently do not care what others think, then I doubt if you care.

Anyway, may the wheel of life turn and bless you with what you sow, hopefully without damage to others.

g'day
