US Secret Service agents and officers have been accused of involvement with prostitutes, leaking sensitive information, publishing pornography, sexual assault, illegal wiretaps, improper use of weapons and drunken behavior, according to internal government reports reviewed by The Associated Press on Friday (Saturday NZT).

It wasn't immediately clear how many of the accusations turned out to be true.

The new disclosures of so many serious accusations since 2004 lend weight to concerns expressed by Congress that the Secret Service prostitution scandal in April in Colombia exposed a cultu

OMG . The secret service used to be the pinnacle of trust and reliability.
If you were in the secret service you would take a bullet to protect the person you were assigned to.
WTF is going on in the secret service now ?
It seems to me that the once prestigious job of being a secret service agent is now relegated to just another job
in the minds of the agents
I am not an American but I have always thought that being in the secret service would be the ultimate position of trust secret service now ?

It's called corruption and it's everywhere. We are a Godless nation and people only care about themselves.

Being godless has nothing to do with it.

It's the bad path humanity has taken because they allowed themselves to be lead by the worst of the bunch,with the worst ideas...

This has been going on for a while, but they're just now getting caught up.

I'm sure Secret Service
enlisting the services of Women of the Night
goes back as far as the length of the service itself

prostitution goes back as far as
one of the oldest known occupations

nothing's infallible

Indicative of the decline of America in general. Look at the colleges. Drunken orgies. Completely debased. You've come a long way, baby. A long way down.

Ha Ha this attitude really amazes me! You think that one human being should have the "job" of "taking a bullet" for another human being? WTF! What kind of job is that? lol

So you value the life of one human being over another? One rich/powerful human being should be able to pay a less wealthy/powerful human being to take bullets for them?

Now that is truly messed up! And pretty damn SICK if you ask me! If we have came away from that attitude then it is a step in the right direction if you ask me!

Have you seen the dictator yet? See the type of person that "takes a bullet"?

Now if someone decided to take a bullet for someone else for whatever reason thats their choice of course and in certain situations it would be admirable. Say you take a bullet for your child or something! But some rich person being able to buy someone less fortunate to take bullets is just WRONG!

Reminds me of that 'archer' show, improper use of weapons, drunken behavior. But you know what? No pics. Hmmm. If it is so routine why no pics? Spring break someone always has a camera.

That is what is required / expected of a secret service person who is guarding someone .
I didn't make the rules . They take the job knowing what they are expected to do.

I am so sick of people like you injecting God, or lack of God, into EVERY single topic on ATS. If you want every aspect of your life to involve God and religion, that's your business. But keep your irrelevant BS out of threads that have nothing to do with God or religion. BTW, despite what your self-righteous faith has taught you, you are NOT better than anyone else and your piety is laughable.

Nothing.
They are exactly the same as they have always been. They just let them take the fall for some reason this time.

I mentioned lack of God, not faith. You sound like a child going on a tantrum because you don't understand what the adults in the room are talking about. Grow up.

This thread is about a select few members of the US Secret Service that have been accused of typical human indiscretions. Please explain how God, the belief in God, or lack of belief in God has anything to do with this topic? The fact is, it doesn't. It's just another opportunity for you bible-thumping Luddites to bust out the soap-box and commence with the self-righteous preaching. If you can't figure out a way to contribute to the conversation without cracking into the New Testament, please return your eMachine to Best Buy and stay the hell off the Internet. After all, I'm sure a God-fearing person such as yourself can clearly see that the Internet was a creation of Satan, designed to corral all us sinners.

I mentioned God never religion. There is no bible thumping here.

I can tell by the way you act that you don't have many friends. You might have a mental condition. You should seek help.

can someone POST the Secret Service Oath ?

The oath of office is "I, [name], do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God"

DONT MENTION GOD IN THIS THREAD!

How dare you bible thump?!

reply to post by draco49


so what did they do wrong?

What do people really expect? Seriously.

These are men assigned to protect criminals. Do you think they are unaware of that fact? They probably have more dirt on our Politicians than we can even fathom. So with that in mind... if your job is to protect a fraud, is it not human nature to slowly over time slack off on your own responsibilities?

Allow me to put it another way...

Let us say your boss is late to work on a regular basis. Do you think the employees are going to be on time? Your boss likes to bend the rules, do you think your employees won't start bending the rules as well?
