Washington Post ^

Dana Hedgpeth April 13 at 11:52 AM Security at the White House was again breached Sunday after a 4-year-old toddler got through a security barrier on the property.
The incident happened Sunday afternoon when security agents rushed to the north lawn with their weapons drawn and checked out the area.
They discovered that the toddler had managed to climb under a temporary barrier along Pennsylvania Avenue outside the White House gate. The barrier looks similar to a bike rack, officials said, but is meant to keep pedestrians away.
It was not immediately clear how the child got through the secured area. The child was reported to be fine and reunited with the parents.

Is there anything the Secret Service do?
I bet this toddler was attempting to get back on Joe Biden for his toddler attack last week.

Instantly the IQ of the White House doubled.
(Of course the IQ in the White House increases every time Obama leaves.

The Secret Service can’t catch a break. They don’t get no respect, even from a bored American toddler. “Why is everybody always pickin on me?!,”

Were the parents distracted by being on the cellphone? See a lot of parents ignoring their children due to that!

Parents need to be careful with who their kids make friends with.
Some "friends" are bad influences.

Yes, you’re right. The toddler was just curious about the child with the big ears and no brains inside the house...

It was not immediately clear how the child got through the secured area. The White House has hundreds of cameras surrounding it but it's not clear how it happened.
