How in the HELL did all those people keep this a SECRET??? Military Personnel and their CHILDREN didn't TALK to their friends??

This almost sounds like a fairy tale story, except for the fact that they were making FUN of the Patriots in the TEA PARTY!!

Of course they talk to their friends. But it looks like there was no media outlet that was willing to take the story mainstream.

The MSM probably consider this to be a "lesson learned" from all the flack the Gores got for their similarly over-the-top "Beauty and the Beast" Halloween during Al Jr.'s Vice Presidency. That hurt Al, can't have the same thing happen to Obama, right?

And that was just a party.
What else are they keeping secret that isn’t just a matter of fun?

I wonder if they were drugged?

So, is the East Room the same as the Dining Room? I guess I read it to mean that there was a celebration in one room for military kids etc, but that unbeknownst to the reporters etc, there was the Alice party being set up. But, I am thinking I must be wrong. lol
