Was there a motocross race in Maryland this week?


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.

Lazich said deputies detained the unidentified, 51-year-old man near
the entrance to Hagerstown Community College about 1 p.m. Wednesday
after getting calls from a number of people attending the meeting held
by Sen. Ben Cardin, D-Md. Obama was not at the meeting.

The sheriff's office turned the man over to the Secret Service, Lazich
said.

Barbara Golden, special agent in charge of the agency's Baltimore
field office, said Thursday that an investigation is ongoing but
declined further comment. A spokesman at the agency's Washington
headquarters also declined to discuss the investigation.

Police said there were no other arrests among the nearly 1,000 people,
some carrying protest signs, who came to the college for the meeting
or demonstrated off-campus.

Cardin's national communications director, Sue Walitsky, called the
incident "unfortunate." She said she was unaware of it until Thursday
morning.

Sigh...we do have a few right-wing morons living in this state...and
they might well be relatives of The Freak...complete with kiddie
motorcycles.

Good Lord...that must be the Freaks age...I believe it was just last year he

You have nothing else to do, dummy? Did you at least send him a card?
