They lied about the fence jumper. Turns out he made it deep into the White House:
White House fence-jumper made it far deeper into building than previously known
The man who jumped the White House fence this month and sprinted through the front door made it much farther into the building than previously known, overpowering one Secret Service officer and running through much of the main floor, according to three people familiar with the incident.
An alarm box near the front entrance of the White House designed to alert guards to an intruder had been muted at what officers believed was a request of the usher’s office, said a Secret Service official who spoke on the condition of anonymity.
The officer posted inside the front door appeared to be delayed in learning that the intruder, Omar Gonzalez, was about to burst through. Officers are trained that, upon learning of an intruder on the grounds — often through the alarm boxes posted around the property — they must immediately lock the front door.
After barreling past the guard immediately inside the door, Gonzalez, who was carrying a knife, dashed past the stairway leading a half-flight up to the first family’s living quarters. He then ran into the 80-foot-long East Room, an ornate space often used for receptions or presidential addresses.
Gonzalez was tackled by a counterassault agent at the far southern end of the East Room. The intruder reached the doorway to the Green Room, a parlor overlooking the South Lawn with artwork and antique furniture, according to three people familiar with the incident.
Secret Service officials had earlier said he was quickly detained at the main entry. Agency spokesman Edwin Donovan said the office is not commenting during the ongoing investigation of the incident.
Breaches of the White House fence have become more common, but most jumpers are tackled by Secret Service officers guarding the complex before they get even a third of the way across the lawn. Gonzalez is the first person known to have jumped the fence and made it inside the executive mansion............"

JFC, they have guns. Shoot the SOB before he gets into the interior of the WH...
Meanwhile, on 9/16, 3 days before the fence jumper:
Secret Service let armed man with arrest record ride in an elevator with Obama

The Secret Service cares as much for Obama as American citizens.

They probably left a skeleton crew at the WH while they attended the staff meeting at a titty bar.

They wanted to watch someone who actually works on their job.

Over at the Daily Kos and other liberal echo chambers, they swear that the Koch Bros. are paying off the Secret Service so that Obama can be assassinated.
If only that were true.

Was the best trained. Then their budget was cut, staff reduced, and a woman put in charge.

He would have a point...
..if Obama was actually at the damn White House.
That being said, letting an ex-con with a sidearm in an elevator with the Prez is a total fuck-up.

Kleanie, you need to review Pierson's conressional testimony. She confirmed long-standing protocols when dealing with security breaches HAD BEEN CHANGED to be less lethal.
There are WELL PLANNED reasons why Secret Service should be an apolitical agency. Obama is a fucking MORON and SHOULD NEVER HAVE INTERCEDED after the Columbian prostitutes incident, and the Miriam Carey shooting.
This is simply another example of Obama arrogantly, recklessly, supplanting the decisions and well reasoned practices of military and national security agencies. Remember, his skills are as a community organizer.

I'm not defending him (and I wouldn't) but Obama has NOTHING to do with Secret Service agents not doing their job. When it comes to security, regardless if Obama is home or not, isn't laxed. The men on the ground, those monitoring ground sensors, those at the doors, etc.. are to blame. It's common for them to do tests like this, when the first family isn't home. That was my first thought. Who authorized the door alarm to be muted? Why weren't the spotters on the roof ready to fire? Where was the communication breakdown?
If Pelosi broke a toilet, you all would find a way to blame Obama.

The dude is a trained lawyer. By that token, what was Bush doing as President? He was part owner of a baseball team.

I had a wonderful conversation with a few former agents of the Secret Service this week. So, some of what I said is coming from their knowledge and experience.
