In the picture that will grace Michaele Salahi’s mantelpiece for the rest of her days, her blonde hair brushes against Joe Biden’s temple, her long fingers appear to be stroking his chest and the Vice President of the United States looks genuinely pleased to see her.
Until Wednesday morning, Mrs Salahi’s chief claim to fame was her past life as a Washington Redskins’ cheerleader and her hoped-for future as a reality TV star. Her husband was known as a Virginia wine-lover who once played polo with the Prince of Wales.
They now rank as the most successful gatecrashers in the history of the White House.
Two investigations are under way to establish how Michaele and Tareq Salahi managed to breach at least two layers of supposedly impregnable White House security for Tuesday’s state dinner in honour of the Indian Prime Minister, and whom is to blame.

Oh, so it wasnt Bill O’Reilly with Ann Coulter.
I think Canada should send the WH an appropriate Inuit soapstone carving for defensive purposes. I’m sure a former PM would be most pleased to demonstrate technique required. When not in use, a lovely conversation piece on the mantle place. Cheers. PS I have one and its a dark green walrus.
I’m laughing. When I first heard that Obama was holding this gathering in a tent I thought of Ghadafi and my very next thought was about the Secret Service.
“How the hell do they handle this security nightmare?”
I had no idea so I said nothing but this situation is no surprise.
I just “knew” something was going to happen.
Sorry to double post, but you do know that now the “in thing” will be to gate crash Obama events – kinda like the little gnome/ground squirrel that goes everywhere and has its picture taken with the rich, famous and powerful. How seriously can you take the position of POTUS? Remember Woodstock, everyone was there in the mud, blood and beer and they have the pictures to prove it. Cheers.
