During the election, indeed even after that, the media and the left went on and on about how Obama was in danger from “the right”. Meaning, of course, that some conservative would take a shot at him rather than see him inaugurated. That was a smear of unprecedented proportions, of course.*

Well, not only did Obama survive January 20 just fine, but now it appears as though if the President is in actual danger (and all Presidents are, of course), it’s from the left, not from the right:

A man from President Obama’s hometown of Chicago has been arrested for allegedly sending Obama and his staff envelopes containing HIV-infected blood, in the hopes of killing or harming them.

It’s only the second time ever that HIV-infected blood has been sent with malicious intent through the U.S. mail system, a spokesman for the U.S. Postal Inspection Service said.

In the weeks leading up to Obama’s inauguration, Saad Hussein, an Ethiopian refugee in his late 20s, sent an envelope addressed to “Barack Obama” to offices of the Illinois government in Springfield, Ill., according to court documents.

The envelope contained a series of curious items, including a letter with reddish stains and an admission ticket for Obama’s election-night celebration in Chicago’s Grant Park. Court documents said Hussein, who takes drugs to treat a mental illness, later told FBI agents he is “very sick with HIV” and cut his fingers with a razor so he could bleed on the letter.

Hazmat teams were called in after the envelope was opened, and offices of the Illinois Department on Aging and the Department of Revenue were locked down for nearly two hours, locking 300 staffers in their offices, court documents said.

Hussein, with his brother acting as an interpreter, told FBI agents he was actually “an admirer” of Obama and was “seeking help from the government,” according to court documents. He also told them he was hoping to obtain tickets to the Inaugural ceremonies in Washington, the documents said.

Most Presidential assassins, or even the would-be assassins, have come from the left. Obama is not, and never was, in serious danger from anyone on the right, and this demonstrates that fact.

You’d think that the left, after spending the last eight years doing nothing but fantasizing about killing George W. Bush, would want to give this subject a rest. I mean, the outrage is kind of misplaced, don’t you think?

And, besides…what conservative/right winger on earth would try and take out Obama when they know we’ll just get Joe Biden in his place? Say what you will about Obama, but Biden would be ten thousand times worse. Remember, he’s the comic-relief of the Democrat Party. Nobody wants to make him the comic-relief of the entire nation.

*The left is always predicting what we’ll do as a way of excusing the things they do in their so-called responses. It’s a way for them to escape accountability for their actions. In short, when they act up, they like to say that we made them do it or that we drove them to it, when we’ve done nothing to them at all. It’s their way of justifying their behavior.
