A Message To Rudy

God, I know and hate people like them, who somehow manage to turn a "I'll see what I can do" into an "OK, so we'll see you when we get there." This sounds like a game they have played all too well...the ability to twist a "maybe" into a "Thanks for doing this for us", the conveniently out-of-power cell phone at a crucial time (the last possible time a call could be placed to them telling them they weren't going to get an invite). They're low-level con people, no doubt.

Michele Jones should have flat out said "no" when it was clear she couldn't get them in, if only to save her ass. And did I miss it or did something explain why they contacted her in the first place? How do they know her (apparently) so well as to correspond with her and ask for (free?) tickets to see the president?

Seriously, how in the hell did they know so well those people wouldn't be attending?

@The Real JR: Those names were reported in the press before the event. Remember there was even a right-wing dustup where they tried to claim that GOP's like Boehner weren't invited, and then the left-wing press pushed back with lists of people like Reid who were invited (as was Boehner) but declined to attend.

I also can "here" smiles in emails. I also have the ability taste snark. Tastes like chicken.

It looks like there are a few steps missing in this email chain. I'm reserving judgment until all of the pieces are there, except to pass judgment on this couple because no matter which way this turns out, they are clearly sad and pathetic attention whores. Also, her extensions are terrible.

I wonder if that last email, from Michele Jones, is going to cause trouble for her--she didn't contradict anything they said (by, for example, saying "what do you mean, you were on the list? I didn't put you on the list"), she just says that she's glad they had a wonderful time.

@tewkesbury: Yeah, the "You are most welcome!" is going to be the smoking gun here. It implies that she did something for them (incriminating them) and that they didn't do anything wrong (since she didn't contradict it).

@tewkesbury: The email exchange does make them seem less like the out-and-out crazies I imagined them to be, and more like overly-persistent status seekers. They certainly did try to obtain access through proper channels, submitted security clearance info, etc., rather than just showing up randomly and out of nowhere.

If it wasn't for the whole impersonating-a-Washington-Redskins-cheerleader fiasco, I would even be tempted to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Why do all the Housewives have that same face? That long face and stringy blonde hair?

@cassandra: Chin implants and a fascination with Carolyn Bessette Kennedy, whose hair was ALSO very expensively fried to a crisp.

So Larry King's producers (do they moonlight at the Bravo Network?) are giving these creepy crawlers a showcase Monday night, to talk about their Excellent White House Adventure, and record optimum camera angles in their ongoing and so far successful bid to land a spot on the reality series? We're slipping fast, people.

There is only funny in this because nobody died.

You don't need guns to kill people, you don' t need to bring weapons of your own to kill people. There are knives at the state dinner, and hey, look how close the woman got to both Vice Prez Biden and Chief of Staff Rahm.

This is a !@#$%^ disgrace.

...and remember Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko? Poisoned. (Possibly at a dinner meeting; [news.bbc.co.uk])

...and who else got in there? We knew these two have crashed the party because they made high profile about it, but who else got in that wasn't known?

Turns out Bravo was "following -- and filming" the White House party crashers on Tuesday. Not entirely clear whether the cameras rolled inside the state dinner, but if so it's just another level of security fail. [www.nytimes.com]

@Glib and Bitchy:
Clarification and update: Bravo says its cameras did not enter the White House, so at least there's that. Still, an embarrassing flub that -- all humor aside -- eats away at the administration's aura of competency.

I think what is really sad is that we live in this post 9-11 world where tons of personal freedoms have been washed away and privacy is a quaint concept at best, yet two ding-a-lings with delusions can crash a Presidential event... And that this even happened after some loonball in the military who everyone knew was a loonball went all loonball and killed people on an Army base.

Which is all to say: So we're sacrificing all of this privacy and personal freedom for what exactly? It's pretty clear that any loon can get into--and do--whatever they want despite the best protections of those in charge.

But thank goodness nobody can bring large bottles of shampoo and conditioner on airplanes, and people have to have their shoes check at the airport, right?

Good effing lord.

@SpyMagician: I think you are on to something here. With all of the sophisticated technology at our disposal these days, there doesn't seem to be any benefit. It's like a bunch of keystone cops out there.

It doesn't surprise me cause things like the financial meltdown happened right under the nose of all of the regulators, etc. It's a free-for all I tell ya!! And it's beginning to make me nervous.

The first thing I thought of when I saw this was another couple who crashed DC parties--Kenneth and Sante Kimes, back in the 1970s. Mrs. Kimes and her son, also named Kenneth, murdered their wealthy NYC landlady a few years ago and are serving life in prison.
