You're saying the loyalty of the Secret Service to the First Family has to be bought, either way. If that's the case, then it shouldn't be hard to figure a former agent could be bought to be *disloyal*.
IOW, if you're going to paint the Secret Service, current and former, as unethically mercenary, you can't assume the book author is pure and righteous. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mdixon.6569@...> wrote : Actually, they both work. Nobody said anything about *nobility*. They are paid to do a job. Secret Service takes their job seriously. They protect the first family. They've even been known to make people apologies for disparaging remarks by threats and intimidation. Now, if agents are *former agents*, that would be a different situation. May require some greasing of the palm. From: "authfriend@...

First, the agents are denouncing the book because they're nobly doing their duty to protect Hillary. When that turns out not to work, all of a sudden they're denouncing the book because she's bribed them. You can't have it both ways, sorry. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mdixon.6569@...> wrote : Being former agents doesn't mean anything. The Clinton foundation is very very rich.

They aren't assigned to anybody. Also, what they're pissed about is the author having falsely inflated his status in the White House. They say he was low-ranking and wouldn't have been in a position to see what he claims to have seen. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mdixon.6569@...> wrote : I think the second paragraph says it all.
