Secretly Serviced

Secret Servicemen, caught out with whores,
Sent a shock through the diplomat corps.

That "foreign affairs
Are more in our purview than yours.")

This potentially critical lapse in security cast a pall over the President's arrival at the important Summit of the Americas in Colombia on Friday. However, it did not derail one key accomplishment: the implementation of the new US-Colombian free trade pact.
