A solid B+ effort from the Barry administration. The system worked
The Secret Service announced this afternoon that a third crasher made it into the White House state dinner made famous by the uninvited Salahis.
An agency spokesman wouldn’t divulge the name or even the gender of the crasher, who appears to have made his or her way in completely separately from the now-infamous horse-country reality-show hopefuls.
In a statement, the Secret Service said the uninvited guest gained entree with the official Indian delegation: “The subject traveled from a local hotel, where the official Indian delegation was staying, and arrived at the dinner with the group, which was under the responsibility of the Department of State… This individual went through all required security measures along with the rest of the official delegation at the hotel, and boarded a bus/van with the delegation guests en route to the White House.”
And yet, this person was not on any list authorizing his or her presence at the White House. The Secret Service said they have already made “procedural changes” to deal with the way foreign delegations are cleared.
Say, I heard about this great measure a previous admin used, which was having a person from the “party” office checking off the names of those invited personally at the gate. Too bad that was stopped, eh?
Silly pirate! Anyone standing at the gate can’t seat themselves with the guests, don’tcha know?
Good point
