Couple Crash White House Dinner: A New Record


It seems like there has been a new record made, though perhaps not one that should become too popular. A couple from northern Virginia apparently managed to crash the White House's state dinner on Tuesday night. Tareq and Michaele Salahi were seen arriving at the White House, and later posted pictures of themselves with guests on Facebook, though an official stated that they were never invited, not on the guest list, and were never seated. Although the White House offered no explanation, it seems this is the first time in history that anyone has managed to crash a dinner at the White House. Ed Donovan, a spokesman for the Secret Service claimed
Everyone who enters the White House grounds goes through magnetometers and several other levels of screenings. That was the case with the state dinner... No one was under any risk or threat.

Regardless, one must question the responsibility of security personnel present.
