That bus is going to need new struts from all the bouncing going on.
How does a couple of dead broke, frauds get to be called socialites. ????
Those seem to be lots of facts there, but why bother with facts when you can dump it on the military with the blessings form the hill press core?
I get the feeling this was orchestrated. It’s the only way it could happen.
This was a shot across the bow by the CIA or the dark shadowy group that runs our government.
LOL. Are we ready with the epithets?
Gee. How quaint!
Matter of fact, it seems that her mother, or grandmother, was the "Voodoo Queen" of New Orleans.
HAHAHAHA, just more of the CIC in action (clown in chief). He hasn’t done ONE THING CORRECTLY. He can’t even read his frigging teleprompter without mistakes. Let’s buzz the statue of liberty with AF1. Just for example. What a HUGE colossal mistake our country made. Carter looks like a scholar compared to obama.
It’s very stupid of whoever was in charge of security. This is the POTUS for Christ’s sake! Just seeing that couple getting that close to the President without checks makes me think: What if it was someone out to harm our President? like a terrorists? heads are gonna roll regarless of who what when
What a crappy looking dress Desiree is wearing: terribly unflattereing.
It makes her look as though rolls of flab are all over her belly!
Despite the implicit revulsion I feel about anyone connected to the kenyan’s administration, as far as I can tell, the secret service is completely at fault here. So no, no buses for the social director.
Throwing someone “under the bus” is a term usually used when someone says or does something negative to someone else to deflect deserved criticism from themselves. It’s a cheap, self-serving stunt. That’s different than firing someone who does something wrong. In other words, it’s never “cool” to “throw someone under the bus”, but it IS “cool” to fire someone who makes a major screw up. Unless this was done at Obama’s direction, he should fire her, but it wouldn’t qualify as throwing her “under the bus”, again, unless she was simply following his orders.
No, Obama will not get rid of this person.
Thanks for the post but now I have to go get something kind for my stomach. What a nauseating writeup. Voodoo priestess is in her heritage, and this is highlighted as a good thing? In all eight years of President Bush’s time in office, I don’t recall EVER reading anything remotely resembling such a bunch of flattering crapola about anyone in the Bush administration.
Yet the Bush White House carried out event after event after event with precision, with grace, with beauty, and without any security breaches or any protocol lapses (that I can recall). Yet never one mention in the LSM of “praise” for their professionalism and truly Presidential events.
Frankly, I’m surprised the Party crashers were even acknowledged by the White House at all....so am sure they will never hold their vodoo priestess (descendant) friend accountable.
(oh, and kudos for good reporting. Yours is the only one I’ve read in all the media that revealed this info related to the party crash).
Nice work, kristinn - as usual.
And that style would be "amateurism".
Clearly, this whole sad incident is due to sloppy Secret Service procedures Obama inherited from the Bush Administration.

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!
