Secret Service dude still has a job!
The picture above was taken yesterday after the inauguration while the one below was taken after Bush got attacked with shoes last month. I thought he would have definitely been reassigned to McDonalds or something…

Hahahaha top notch security :p

I think its similar in Kuwait, this man is the oldest and he’s being ‘inhered’ from one president to the other, just an honorary position to open doors and walk behind the president. the men who supposed to do the actual work are the younger ones.

LOL great catch! maybe he has a good wasta

Good one Mark….I was wondering what the US press would make of this..

I noticed him too when Obama got out of the car!
He reminded me of Clint Eastwood’s character in “In the line of fire” and maybe he is destined for a second chance to save Obama.

Yeah this guy kept his job as they believe his action was appropriate!

So, Obama must depend on himself for the first shoe as his agent will only move when the second shoe takes off !
Good catch Mark.

Hahahaha. I knew he looked familiar!
I was watching the parade or whatever and obviously he was in the picture the whole time. And i was thinking i’ve definatly seen this guy somewhere before.
And 3azeez. I think that group of secret service men are supposed to be the best of the best. That group is the group thats with the president, whomever he may be, all the time.
Nothing is like Kuwait ;)

hahahaha… Good one Mark… I guess he was hired by Obama coz he let the shoes being fired at BUSH LOL

I was thinking the same thing while watching the inauguration, I thought he would have been downgraded to presidential Dog guarding duty or something!! Guess the fact that he DIDN’T protect Bush was the right call and that why he still on with Obama ;)
12. Labeeb | January 22nd, 2009 at 10:11 am
Lol
13. Bo9ale7 | January 22nd, 2009 at 10:24 am
hahah thats funny
14. YUAN | January 22nd, 2009 at 10:28 am
Perhaps the reason why he’s still with obama is because he has a big wasta that protects his profession… ahahha
Despite of the inefficient way of his work, or maybe he promised to be more observant this time to protect and secure the president :D

Mark; you are the Stiff Maestro!!! It wasnt the catch you know, it was the way you portrayed it: “Hello” and then …. “is that a shoe”! I just pictured the whole thing and you could have actually gotten the top job at TMZ on Dubai One for showing this to us!!!!!!!!!!!! teeeeee heeeeee~!!!!
19. nyx | January 22nd, 2009 at 2:22 pm

22. holla | January 22nd, 2009 at 5:05 pm
He always has the same expression. Stick his head in a few photochops and make him into the newest internet fad. HE SAVES YOU BY STARING INTO THE DISTANCE.
23. jolie_gal | January 22nd, 2009 at 5:35 pm

24. KuwaitTeacher | January 22nd, 2009 at 5:40 pm
Seriously tho, what ”weird” person actually noticed it in the first place?
speaking of the inauguration, anyone notice the shape of michelle’s dress………..definitely a bulletproof vest under that dress………
25. skyline | January 22nd, 2009 at 7:27 pm
i wouldn’t hire him as watch man in our building..
he is a jerk and has nothing to do with VIP’s protection what so ever!
26. teach | January 22nd, 2009 at 10:07 pm

The show-throwing incident was in Iraq. In the U.S., the shoe doubles as a phone. I saw it on an episode of “Get Smart.”

I have seen the secret services with my own eyes working on arrangments for President Bush to arrive to my university. The secret services are the best of the best when it comes to making the President safe.
