No... REALLY!

George Constanza, the fictional character from the popular show "Seinfield" once said "It's not a lie if you believe it." As of now, I have a feeling that the folks that decided that they should show up (allegedly uninvited) to a state dinner have embraced that quote. In this case, perhaps the best defense actually is "No, we really were invited. For REAL!" And against such, there is little defense. Especially if you have lost the invite, or it was stolen, or your dog ate it. Common sense would suggest that they wanted to crash this party for publicity. The bigger problem is that they were actually able to crash is! Let's not forget that massive problem.

If nothing else the Salahis are giving new hope to every third grader who can't produce their math homework. No, no, Mrs. Jones, by dog really did eat it! I promise!

At the same time, they gave new hope to somebody that might want to get close enough to our global leaders to cause some harm. I'm sure that future heads of state that are invited guests of the White House will need a bit more assurance of their safety.
