'By most accounts, Chelsea Clinton treated the residence staff with respect. Yet Ronn Payne [White House Florist] believes that she had internalized some of her parents’ animosity toward the Secret Service. In the very beginning of the Clinton administration, agents were stationed on the second-floor staircase landing, right by the president’s elevator. Another Secret Service post was at the top of the Grand Staircase across from the Treaty Room on the second floor.
One day, according to Payne, he was walking through the second-floor private kitchen when an agent walked in behind him waiting to escort Chelsea to Sidwell Friends, the private school she attended in northwest Washington. Chelsea was on the phone.
“Oh, I’ve got to go,” she told her friend. “The pigs are here.”
The agent turned “crimson,” Payne recalls. “Ms. Clinton, I want to tell you something. My job is to stand between you, your family, and a bullet. Do you understand? ”
"Well, that's what my mother and father call you," she replied'
I don't blame Chelsea Clinton. She was just a teenager at the time. But I am shocked and dismayed at the condescending attitude the Clintons have towards the poeple who are willing to lay down their lives to protect them. Ms. Clinton claims she identifies with the working people. But this can't be true or she would have respect for the Secret Service rather than the obvious seething contempt she really has for them.
I urge my felllow Democrats to vote for either Martin O'Malley (the highly regarded two term Governor of Marland) or Elizabeth Warren (the esteemed Senator of Massachusetts). They truly identify with the working people. The Clintons are only about themselves and we should not reward their avarice, narcissism, and general bad behavior with our vote. Hillary Clinton has not earned nor does she deserve our vote. Vote wisely. Vote for people who really care about us. Hillary Clinton only cares about herself.
