Here’s the story I want to know more about:

“The Secret Service was embroiled in a new row Saturday after it was revealed that about 12 agents protecting US President Barack Obama in Colombia were sent home amid rumors of a sex scandal.

Just hours after Obama arrived late Friday in Cartagena, under lockdown for the Summit of the Americas meeting with heads of state from across the region, the scandal erupted.

“There have been allegations of misconduct made against Secret Service personnel in Cartagena, Colombia prior to the president’s trip,” Secret Service special agent in charge Edwin Donovan said in a statement Friday.

“Because of this, those personnel are being relieved of their assignments, returned to their place of duty, and are being replaced by other Secret Service personnel.”

I worry for this President, a lot. All the time. The only thing that keeps that worry at a manageable level is that I’ve generally always had trust that the Secret Service are very good at their jobs. Should I fear that… maybe they’re really not? Or maybe they’re not trying their best?
