Obama And The Secret Service

Obama: they better have my back!

In light of the recent security lapses regarding the Secret Service and their most important client, U.S. President Barack Obama, are they sure they have remedied the faults that led to unscreened individuals gaining access to the Commander-in-Chief, in three separate incidents.

Have revisions been made to ensure the same mistakes will not happen again? It's not like Obama's packing heat like cousin, Dick Cheney, who was ready to "pepper" anyone at a moment's notice.

Another thing, why is it when they go out in public, the Secret Service stands so far away from President Obama. Shouldn't they be closer to him, even walking in front of him. One sees them in photos online and often Obama is wide open. That's not safe. You should adjust that.

Jobless Claims In America Rise Again

The jobless numbers in America have spiked again to 482,000. Something is clearly wrong, as the economy refuses to stabilize. The jobless claims keep rising, because the government is not handling the economy correctly.

Obama Clamps Down On Banks

"Video: Obama Steps Up Campaign Against Wall Street"

U.S. President Barack Obama has announced new measures to clamp down on American banks, via limiting their participation in hedge funds, which are risky investment vehicles.

Wall Street was not pleased with the news, as it means a number of big banks will have to sell off or spin off, certain divisions of their financial institutions.

I remember years ago when brokers began to brag about hedge funds as the new must have investment vehicle. At the time, I interpreted it as an enclosure for shaky investments some did not wish to provide an adequate explanation for, as they are risky. But really, people should have seen that disaster coming - since when do the words "risky" and "investment" in the same sentence spell success.

Rihanna's New Boyfriend A Woman Beater

Rihanna and Matt Kemp

Rihanna's new boyfriend, baseball player and Los Angeles Dodger, Matt Kemp, is a woman beater according to this ex-girlfriend, Felisha Terrell, who took out a restraining order against him in 2008. She stated he is violent and was kicked out of a night club for fighting with a woman.

Rihanna's other boyfriend, Chris Brown, was arrested last year for beating her after she hit him during an argument over another woman. Rihanna is a violent woman that keeps picking violent men.

She is playing with fire, as she has been using Kemp to make Brown jealous. She clearly hasn't learned her lesson about playing with ill-tempered men. Ironically, Kemp did a profane "Funny or Die" skit about Chris Brown's woman beating ways.

Rihanna's latest boyfriend too has a violent past

Thursday Jan 21 6:05 PM - ...Rihanna, 21, is currently dating LA Dodgers star Matt Kemp, and an ex-girlfriend of his, actress Felisha Terrell, 30, has revealed his violent past and claims that she took a restraining order out against him in June 2008.

"He is violent and I am afraid. He repeatedly made me scared and gets in my face. He is threatening to take all the items I purchased and try to destroy my property," the Mirror quoted her as saying.

"He brings his friends driving up and down the street to try and intimidate me. I am very fearful. He has other people calling me and stalking me," she added.

Terrell had in her application for the restraining order claimed that Matt was "kicked out of a club for fighting with a woman - I am afraid his behaviour will turn towards me since we are no longer dating". (ANI)

Jon Cryer Wife Gets Visit From FBI

Dog: you've really done it this time, girl!

Two Los Angeles FBI agents tore themselves away from spying on the American people, to question Sarah Trigger, the ex-wife of "Two and a Half Men" actor, Jon Cryer. Why you ask? She is being accused of hiring a hit man to kill him.

Sarah Trigger is being accused of hiring a trigger man. Don't you feel the love in room (sarcasm). Coincidentally, Cryer's co-star, Charlie Sheen, was recently arrested for threatening his wife with a knife to her neck and reportedly trying to choke her unconscious.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Hollywood stars are not better than you.
