Omar Gonzalez, 42, overpowered a female. Secret Service agent to get into the WH. According to one report I heard, he was finally tackled in the East Room, and was near a staircase that leads up to presidential living quarters.
This could have been monumental catastrophe with just a little bad luck added to the scenario. Why aren't all Secret Service agents directly guarding the President at least 6'4" 210 lbs? Do we want to have to put 'died of political correctness' on a president's tombstone?

umm, no.

The East room and the Residence are on 2 different sides of the White House and there are like 5 Security check points in between. The attacker would have had to beat up like 20 Secret service members and about 12 Marines to get into the residence.

Lefties NEVER follow things to their logical conclusion....everything is about "feelings".
Maybe he was there to secretly make a pizza delivery...with 2 meat toppings. If he got caught, the President probably told him to make up some intruder story so Mrs Obama didn't find out.
Obviously the Secret Service is protecting the President just like they did with JFK and Jackie. For all we know, Kentucky Fried Chicken is sneaked in on other days.

First of all, "um" is not an English word. Second of all, take it up w/ CBS news. I'm just going by what they said:

Actually, that has nothing to do with Leftism, thats a human flaw in general. Plenty of Republicans and Conservative share that same flaw, if not more so.

Right you are! Dump all the wimmin! What's wrong with America? Ya got to get the big guys in there to do the job! Big guys. Tough guys. Manly men who can do the job since all the wimmin are being overpowered. 6'4 and tougher than tough. You should call someone who wouldn't think of hiring females for a man's job. Call the Oakland Raiders defensive line coach. Ask for his help. He'd know about real men and what they can do that those silly females can't do. They could serve their country and you wouldn't have to complain about females doing what is obviously a a man's job. Maybe you could even chest bump a Raider on his way to guarding the East Room.
Luckily he didn't have a gun or bomb. This was a wakeup call and better security will be in place from now on.
If he was caught in the East Room then he was on the "public" side of the White House (part of the old White House tour) and not the West Wing where the offices and residence are.
It's still inexcusable that he got so far. The officers outside looked a bit out of shape. Is White House duty considered a lowly joe job for old officers and screw-ups?
