White House Party Crashers

A lot of commotion is going about last weeks White House Dinner on Tuesdays night. Tareq and Michaele Salahi came to the dinner and met a lot of prominent figures, where nobody notice nothing unusual. The only way they were caught was when Michaele posting photos of the dinner on her Facebook page. The Salahi’s were taking pictures with Vice President, Joe Biden and White House Chief of Staff, Rahm Emaunel, Washington Mayor Adrian Fently, CBS News anchor Katie Couric, Rep. Ed Royce, and three uniformed Marines. This couple was not even invited to the state dinner. Fortunately, they did not put the President in danger, since they went through the same security as the other guest.

What the Salahi’s did would be put down in history of America as the funniest thing that ever happened during the time of Americas first black president. It does make it seem that anybody could get into any White House event. I believe that they knew somebody from security to get them into the event. Basically, the White House would have never known if Michaele Salahi did not post those pictures on her Facebook page. President Obama should get tighter security if he does not want the risk of this to happen again, but overall very funny.

Michaele and Tareq Salahi

I think Michaele and Tareq Salahi, should both be punish for entering the Prime Minister,s dinner without and invitation and the Secret Service should'nt let them get away with it. William A. Stone

White House Security Not Too Secure?

Since the election of President Barack Obama, it appears that the country has a decreases sense of nationalism. Although the inaguration of America's first African American president has enthused and warmed the hearts of some, many are still unsatisfied with American politics. The media often highlights the petty issues surrounding the Obama Administration by turning them into public scrutiny, instead of focusing on the more pertinent issues at hand. When it comes to the issue of respect for President Obama, it seems that the US lack a lot of it. Take for instance the recent breach of security at the White House with Salahi party crashers. Fame seeking couple Michaele and Tareq Salahi waltzed past security to attend the state dinner with President Obama. Uninvited, they mingled amongst the rich and famous in hopes of gaining more prestige. Now they are apologetic and don't have to pay any consequences for their actions. How is that so? Is it because nothing dangerous happened? I believe that if it had been President Nixon or President Bush or a African American couple instead that this security breach would be taken more serious. Maybe its just me, or maybe it's our law system.

White House Crasher

According to AOL News, A reality TV hopeful (a new house wife on the Bravo networks) and her husband who crashed a presidential dinner met President Barack Obama in the receiving line, Secret Service acknowledged its officers failed to check whether the couple was on the guest list.

This makes me feel, that you don't have to have an invitation to get into a party at the White House. As long as you are dressed nice and friendly, you can get in. Who ever was at the door, should get fire because what if the couple wasn't friendly and had a dangerous weapon that could have harm the other guess or even the President.

The person over the secret service should have a meeting about why the President need them and how important they are to the White House, because after this incident, it seems that they forgot.

This is not the only party the couple has crashed. According to MyFoxDC.com is reporting that the couple also crashed a Congressional Black Caucus Foundation awards dinner in September by sneaking in the entrance meant for bus boys and caterers.

This makes this couple professional party crasher. ~K.Y.B~

WHY ARE THEY HERE....

There has been a rumor that the newest edition to the Real Housewives of Atlanta was caught intruding in the White House. According to CNN,Tareq Salahi said Tuesday he and his wife "did not party-crash" a White House state dinner last week. Well, in my opinion they had no proof that they were invited and secondly, WHY isn't the security on their job. The Obama's are very lucky that anything didn't happen out of the ordinary. I honestly, don't know what the motive of the couple was because their actions reflect a publicity stunt.

There is no reason that they should have even gotten that close to Obama to even shake his hand. I think its stupidity and ignorance that they feel comfortable enough to even show up with their newly brought outfits, with their pretty smiles and their hidden agendas. I just can not get over this whole situation at hand. I feel that people are so desperate for money and attention, trying to get fame anyway they can, they are willing to do anything.

The Sniper: John Muhuammad

From the archive of John Muhammad that Ii read on MSNBC.com I feel that he is inhuman. Inhuman in the sense of him not showing any emotion, and not being emotional at all. After, the deliberation of the jury their decision if I'm not mistaking is the death penalty.
His role in society is very vivid in the aspects of crime and even to the extent of teen violence. I find it amusing that while he is in court he showed no emotion, and I wonder does he even feels the hurt and the influence that he has had. Being that he was a trained shooter, he knew the damage that he can and did do.
But, my personal thoughts on the situation is that I would honestly like to know what was his motive, what made him snap, what happened to him in his past that has followed him and was still haunting him in his adulthood.
I am not able to imagine why someone would do something to such a multitude of destruction but, it has happened, but I question how much longer will it be before it happens again.

John Allen Muhammad Execution

This mouth John Allen Muhammad was executed because he was the mastermind behind the Washington area sniper, which took place in 2002. He terrorized the nation's capital and with the help of Lee Boyd Malvo,a teenage accomplice.

John Allen Muhammad was pronouns dead at 9:11pm, but Lee Boyd Malvo, the teenage accomplice has a life in prison without parole for killing Linda Franklin.

What John Muhammad did was wrong, but the death penalty is worst. Just because he took away lives, does not give others the right to take away his.

I remember when I was in the 8th grade, Mr. Sanders, my Social Studies teacher told my class about a man who had a life in prison and while he was in prison he painted perfect women body, but sense he had life, he put men faces on the women's body. After he told us that story, he asked the class...what is better, the death penalty or life in prison?

He should have got a life in prison like Lee Boyd Malvo (Muhammad is done with life and don't have to deal with people, but Lee does) because that will give him time to think about what he did to all those people and why he did it. By giving him the death penalty, they gave him away out.
