The other evening, Michaela and Tareq Salahi attended a State Dinner. Normally, there is not much to-do about guests at these dinners but all hell has broken out over these folks, because they crashed the damned thing! The media as well as congress are up in arms over this. Security had been breached with very little effort.
These people also crashed a Black political event recently:
'WASHINGTON – On September 28, 2009 The Congressional Black Caucus Foundation hosted its Annual Phoenix Awards Dinner as part of its 39th Annual Legislative Conference in Washington, DC. More than 4,000 guests attended the event which is the major fundraiser for the Foundation’s scholarship, internship and fellowship programs. Michaela and Tareq Salahi were in attendance. The couple was approached by CBCF staff when they were alerted about a ticket dispute at the table. Upon asking for tickets for the table, which the Salahi’s could not produce, the couple was asked to leave and they complied.'
This thoroughly cracks me up! The Congressional Black Caucus Foundation?? Just take a look at these people while at this event:
I mean, isn't it obvious something is amiss??? I'm just about rolling on the floor laughing over this. I find it absolutely delightful.
I know, I know, it's just not a good thing that folks, particularly con artists such as Michaela and Tareq Salahi, can get that close to the highest powers in our land, to sneak in, sashay and smile like they own the place, posing for pictures with the highest powers of out country. It is a dangerous thing, and Congress is about to question them on this. That in itself is not funny. But what I do admire is the pure gall of these folks.
This takes guts. This is not something the ordinary person would dream of doing. But, there is something about people who dance outside of the lines that wins my admiration.
Do I like them? No. I think they're overbearing and snooty. But I do need to give the devils their due.

It is a dangerous thing,
ReplyDeleteNot in their case, they are just DC socialites and had no intention of harming anything, he was as safe as an egg in a hens nest.
Not that her bony ass could keep an egg very warm, ha ha ha.
Ideas are forming in my head.
ReplyDeleteIt will be entirely your fault when I'm caught in Kylie's bedroom.....;-)
Hahahaha!! You nut! (Make sure you give me proper credit to the press..)
ReplyDeleteI'll admit that it took a lot of gall for them to do that but it was still a stupid thing to do. If you or I had done it we would be in jail.
ReplyDeleteExactly where they should be for about 30 days, but I suppose they'll get off light because of their station in life there and get even more attention over it all, and make a fair amount of money off of it to boot.
What a fucked up country.
Billy, from what I understand, they're getting their own reality tv show. I think it's Desperate Housewives of DC. Now here's the kicker; the talk is that, because of all the notoriety over this escapade, they are predicting this show will be a big hit because people figure the Salahis must be interesting to follow.
ReplyDeleteI cna tell you, if it had been me, I'd probably get more than jail time; I'd probably get shot.
I thought this was absolutely hilarious too. I also don' t get why all the public outrage. I believe that security tests for chemicals and all sorts of things with drug dogs, scanners and searches for guns etc...so there really wasn't a security breach. I think that is being drama queen.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if I would watch their tv reality show if they get one...but on the other hand...I used to love the jamie Kenedy Experience and the show Punk'd and if they are like Candid Camera attitude it might be a lot of fun. They could wear costumes and disguises and get into all kinds of benefits and fundraising I suppose?
Hey mama! I was just msging you over at facebook! Nah, I wont watch it either. But I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought this was kinda funny. My sister is appalled that I laughed at it.
