HOT! New Book Out On Secret Service Opinions

 This piece came across the transom.  These sound bites below corroborate what I’ve known about these people.  Ron Kessler is a very insightful author.  A key revelation is this: Note the Democrat composite mosaic vs. the Republican composite mosaic.  It says a lot as to who should be elected president and vice president, their wives, and their key staff. 

NEW BOOK…

In the President’s Secret Service: Behind the Scenes with Agents in the Line of Fire and the Presidents They Protect 
by Ronald Kessler

18 May 2011

Kessler has written 18 New York Times best sellers.  This book about the Secret Service reveals an awful lot about the Presidents and Vice-Presidents.  Some agents have been criticized for speaking out.  Here’s an interesting Presidential recap:

JFK and LBJ = Philanderers of the highest order, both kept a lot of women in White House for affairs.  Both set up “early warning” systems for it and when their wives were nearby.  Totally immoral men.

In addition, LBJ was as crude as the day is long.

Richard Nixon = Weird, moral man but very odd and weird.  Paranoid,  etc.  Horrible relationship with his family, almost a recluse.

Spiro Agnew = A nice, decent man, everyone was surprised at his downfall.

Jerry Ford = A true gentleman who treated them with respect and dignity.

Jimmy Carter = A complete phony.  Would portray one picture of himself to the public and a very different one in private; i.e., he would be shown carrying his own luggage, suit cases were always empty, he kept empty one just for photo ops.  Wanted the people to see him as pious and a non-drinker, yet he and family drank alcohol a lot.  Had disdain for the Secret Service, and was very irresponsible with the “football” nuclear codes.  Didn’t think it was a big deal and would keep military aides at a great distance.  Would never acknowledge military or Secret service were there to serve him.

Ronald Reagan = The real deal.  Moral, Honest, respectful and dignified.  Treated Secret Service and everyone else with respect and honor.  Would always thank everyone all the time.  He took the time to know everyone on a personal level.  One story was early on in Presidency… the President came out of his room with a side arm attached to his hip.  The Agent in charge said “Why the pistol Mr. President?”  Ronald Reagan replied, “In case you boys can’t get the job done, I can help.”  It was common for him to carry a pistol.  People do not know that when he met with Gorbachev, he had a pistol in his briefcase.  Upon learning that Gary Hart was caught with Donna Rice during the election Ronald Reagan said, “Boys will be boys, but boys will not be President.”

Nancy Reagan = Very nice but very protective of the President . . . the Secret Service was always caught in the middle.  Nancy would try to control what the President ate all the time (healthy) and he would say to the Agents “Come on you gotta help me out.”  The Reagans rarely drank alcohol.  Secret Service said they could count on one hand the times the Reagans were served alcohol other than wine during dinner.  They made the comment for all the fake bluster of the Carters.  It was the Reagans who lived life as genuinely moral people.

George and Barbara Bush = Extremely kind and considerate.  Always respectful.  Took great care in making sure the agents comforts were taken care of.  They would bring them meals etc.  One time Barbara Bush brought warm clothes to agents standing outside at Kennebunkport.  One agent who was given a warm hat tried to nicely say no thanks when he was obviously freezing and President Bush said “Son, don’t argue with the first lady, put the hat on.”

Bill Clinton = Presidency was one giant party.  Not trustworthy, he was nice because he wanted everyone to like him, but life is just one big game and party to him.

Barack Obama - Clintons all over again.  Hates the military and looks down on the Secret Service.
