More Accidental Visitors at the White House

Some people have all the luck:
The White House is once again explaining how uninvited guests wound up shaking hands with President Barack Obama.

This time, a Georgia couple hoping to tour the White House ended up at an invitation-only Veterans Day breakfast.

White House officials say the couple mistakenly showed up a day early and were allowed into the breakfast because there were no public tours available. They say the couple, Harvey and Paula Darden of Hogansville, Ga., were properly screened for security.

Harvey Darden, however, said there appeared to be a mix-up. No one told them about the breakfast, he said, and the Dardens thought they were starting their tour until they were ushered into the East Room and offered a buffet.

In 2005 I had a White House tour scheduled but it was canceled, without our knowledge, to make way for some NCAA athletes. When we showed up at the gate we were told we were out of luck. Nobody invited us to the NCAA event.

I would have gone if we'd been asked.

If anything (God Forbid) happens to The Annointed one- and ESPECIALLY if it's a terrorist (aka man caused disaster) the Messiah will achieve what the left has planned for this country.
Let's just get him out of office- Constitutionally.
