Somehow I knew that an affirmative action Friend of Barack would be involved in this.

“White House Social Secretary Desiree Rogers, a Chicago pal of the Obamas”

This explains A LOT! They should throw this gal under the bus and find some willing REPUBLICAN or former Clintonista to manage stuff for them.

There were never screw ups like the ones they’ve had, never under any president in my lifetime, or ever, at least since Andrew Jackson’s inauguration. The entire Obama protocol shop is a DISASTER, I still can’t believe how bad it really is.

Could the Salahi Affair prove false the ancient belief - ‘You can’t bullshit a bullshitter’?

“Whatever epithet ultimately sticks to the Obama White House, Rogers will be its impresario...”

That is a terrible construction, but still, that epithet will be: INEPT!

You actually think the CIA would be involved in something this stupid ..?? The CIA is stacked with democrats & liberals galore, thanks to the Clintons, and I find it difficult to believe the CIA would turn on Obama (even after Pelosi’s lying).

“What a crappy looking dress Desiree is wearing: terribly unflattereing.”

That is truly some hideous dress. It looks like a halloween costume gone all wrong.

I will say that I thought Michele Obama’s outfit for the party was lovely, the best outfit I’ve seen her in yet. She should only let that designer dress her from now on.

Such a quick WH admission that Desiree intentionally broke protocol.... gives the setup away.

she won’t go (even if she does, it will just be to another job ala VanJones and Anita)...

but the propaganda point has been made perfectly, and the spin is almost complete.....

never mind that every time the president decides to go campaigning for the week, in some corner of the globe or another, or the next state over, he creates more and more security situations....

the message is clear: only Obama people can be trusted to protect Obama....

the Secret Service failed because there was no Obama people supervising them, you see.....

good Desiree...bad Secret Service....

and the game continues....

“Whatever “news” the Obamistas intended to generate from this particular state dinner (maybe some photos of the President bowing to this, that or the other unknown diplomat) Tareq and Michaele Salahi took it all away.”

For that reason alone, key White House staffers will probably get the axe. In addition, Michelle didn’t get much publicity on one of the few occasions in her tacky/ugly-dressing life that she wore a pretty dress that made her look good. That’s yet another pink slip-worthy offense on Planet Zero.

Why is Michelle Obama wearing a tire around her waist? Why does she always wear those ridiculous things?

Agreed. I thought the dress was beautiful. I was very surprised not to hear anything about it other than the designer is Indian.

You see how the con lady “shakes” hands? She’s got both her hands around his. I’d say she’s very practiced at getting men to forget what they were previously thinking about.

Fox News just passes on stuff. They've failed to properly source stuff before.

There's an original source somewhere and it's going to have Obama's name associated with it in some way.

Desiree Rogers did nothing wrong. However unfortunate this situation is with these boorish party crashers, it is hardly obvious that Ms. Rogers or the White House Social Office should have been manning the White House entrances. Was Leticia Baldridge personally responsible for checking off guests who entered Kennedy White House events? Of course not. The elegant, shrewd, and sophisticated White House Social Secretary was correct to trust that White House guests would have to present proper identification to White House security personnel. Clearly, security procedures at the white House will have to tighten up — and I’m certain that they will.
