“Meanwhile, the Secret Service confiscated diners’ cell phones to prevent them from snapping photos at a Washington, D.C., burger joint earlier this month while first lady Michelle and her daughters ate there, according to the New York Post. Other news outlets made no mention of confiscations and reported excited patrons used camera phones, however.”

Where are the photos???
