Why doesn’t this have more downvotes? It’s wrong on so many levels.

It’s really more like punching Candy Crowley in the mouth before the presidential campaign debate, to prevent her from covering for Obama by saying he really did call Benghazi an act of terrorism when it happened.

@DHG BRONY  
No stop. This site is for ponies, NOT for pointless political debates.

I agree with the measure in either case! Goddamn alicorn terrorists!

Well, to be fair both Cadence and Twilight actually do have particular cities they are attached to. Twilight might even be tempted if she saw her friends choking out there.

There’s also the whole threat issue with magic. And after A Canterlot Wedding, they probably take no chances.
 
(Also yes, Princesses would totally cheat if they could)

mu guess is that they did it so that their ponies would not get pissed over it. what better way to convince someone to do something so inconvenient than to have it done t yourself? that is why celestia an dluna rule and they do not bother a demoncracyl; the diarchs know what da do.
 
thouhg more than likely they could break the spell. it sems that the magic works like a little buble around the horn. more than likely they could break the magic buble rather easily, but this was a moment of reaction and did not have time for it.

Princesses would totally cheat if they could get away with it though.
 
Twilight could have used her magic to make Rainbow Dashs team win.
 
I don’t think it is the same as terrorism though.

I’m gonna go with this.

Pat downs would do nothing. Obama is already doing enough damage with his “leadership”

@Sparkler  
Obama is best princess

@Background Pony #2361  
She’s the princess over the whole kingdom. She moves the sun (and the moon a while) around. How can one small device does this? Sombra, that’s okay… but this… =\

I don’t see what this is suppose to say, for all we know he is a terrorist and is just waiting for his moment to strike.

Jokes aside, they removed the magic to prevent cheating. And if she had used her magic to assist, it wouldn’t be the first time Celestia showed favoritism towards a pony.  

@sirvancelot  
They obviously wasn’t… and Twilight could do it. They even tasked about the Magic Removing spell.

I don’t think they removed the princesses’ magic, I believe they simply were too shocked to do anything. Wouldn’t be the first time.. :(

#RacismIsWrong

Ya can’t trust anyone.

Silly OP, Obama’s a Muslim. Of course we have to check if he’s a terrorist. :p  
(This is sarcasm by the way before anyone thinks I’m being serious).

You never who it’s gonna be.

So you’re saying Obama is a princess?
