The Secret Service is investigating a man who authorities said held a sign reading "Death to Obama" outside a town-hall meeting on health-care reform in western Maryland.

The sign also read, "Death to Michelle and her two stupid kids," referring to the first name of President Barack Obama's wife, said Washington County Sheriff's Capt. Peter Lazich.

When is this non-sense going to be over?

    • Obama is a goof bending over for every Israeli Jew he comes across, Kucinich or Paul would have been a much better president. I really had some high hopes for Obama but I think he is scared of getting killed by supporters of the Federal Reserve. Should have picked a more nationalist choice for Vice President instead of the bankers buddy Biden.

    • Funny how it's ok to want to kill George Bush or any real Conservative, or well hell anyone who disagrees with out glorious leader; but suddenly it's not OK to voice your opinion IF YOU OPPOSE HIS HOLINESS BARRY SOETORO.

      Be honest Obama backers, you are Fascists.

      How many of you whining about this, complained when it was done to GWB and his admin FOR 8 YEARS? That number would be ZERO. Hypocrites.

      Gee, maybe our perception of George W. Bush would be better if he wasn't an alcoholic, didn't pimp his way through University College with dad's money, didn't hold back democratic voters in Florida with the help of his brother, etc.

      And maybe it would help if he could put a sentence together and didn't speak like a redneck who hasn't even made it through junior high school, and has lost one too many synapses. :\

      Get real. George Bush was the embarrassment and shame of the WORLD, not just the U.S.A. And keep in mind that at least half of us in the U.S.A. didn't vote for him. Obama won by a LANDSLIDE.

      In actual votes it was hardly a landslide. Do you think he might have a better presidency if he didn't align himself with bankers and had a more nationalist agenda? What's wrong with tariffs on foreign made goods? Doesn't the USA want to produce something but food, movies and weapons?

      trut come on, don't act stupid, cause I can tell you're not.

      You know as well as I know that actual votes don't mean as much as electoral votes. And yes, you're absolutely correct; George Bush would have had a better presidency if he acted like he gave a hooty tooty flying fornication about what was going on in his own country, instead of being the extreme corporate whore, and war profiteering monger that he is.

      I was pretty hard on Bush, let me tell you.President Obama would have to do some pretty bad stuff before he could even come close to Bush, but it is possible.

    • Have these people even read the proposed health care bill? Or are they just jumping on the ignorant band wagon, cause it's the fashionable thing to do?

    • Duh, what an idiot. This is beyond idiocy actually. We might have the right to free speech in the USA, but there are limits.

      You don't go making death threats to the President of the United States

    • That's just down right stupid. You are not allowed to threaten the President.
      Why would anyone want the man dead? He seems like a nice enough guy. And NO ONE has the right to take another person's life unless in self defense. This is not that case here!

    • This person needs to thrown up under jail for 20 years. I noticed during the campaign that when the dumbazzes had no sensible rational argument, then things got personal. Where is the republican leadership to denounce this. We should write publish a list and everyone person who is not an embecile in their districts has a moral obligation to call them and demand that this is repudiated. Starting with me: Senator John Cronyn. I'm calling and emailing him as soon as I hit send. Anyone else want to take me up on this challenge? It is terrorism to incite violence against a President of OUR country. Let's do something about it.

    • It is a shame when the uninformed or ill-informed masses take over an issue. It draws the most attention of the media masses and convinces them that the majority of the population is against a proposed piece of legislation.

      What's worse? The efforts of citizens to voice their concerns, or the retailiation efforts of this administration and his cronies in ACORN and SEIU?

      Any reputable poll would also indicated that the majority of American is against this legislation. Unfortunately, the Dems are looking foolish with their response to the criticisms.

    • Jackasses like that only make it harder for people with legitimate concerns and criticisms to be taken seriously, because we all get lumped in with the jerks, which isn't fair. I may not agree with some of his policies (particularly regarding the environment, civil liberties, and I too don't like that the White House is making deals with the pharmaceutical industry) but come on people, wishing anyone dead is simply "unChristian" is it not? Even in my community paper there was a letter asking people to fight this bill and I believe it was written simply because the person doesn't like Obama. And I say that because there wasn't an alternative idea of merit brought forth. What alternative ideas that will actually work do these people even have?

      Death and Christianity have gone hand in hand for millenia, but thats another subject entirely. Religion has nothing to do with this. Basic human decency is the concern.

      I too have noticed the absolute lack of any alternative thought in terms of problem resolution on the part of these GOP nut-jobs.

    • Most of these town hall protesters seem pretty brainless to me but this guy takes the cake. What kind of mentality do these Fox News junkies have to have to do something this stupid?
