FAUX NEWS: U.K. Tabloid: Security Breach at Buckingham Palace

"We keep being told this is the biggest security operation of all time and it seems to me to beggar belief that we could get to a situation, as we did last night, where our journalist was detailed with serving breakfast on the presidential floor this morning and at the state banquet tonight," Mirror editor Pierson Morgan said.

I heard on the news that the decision is driving a wedge into the AARP, there's a membership card burning scheduled in washington, and the organisation leader said last night that there has been a lot of membership cancellations. Hate to see the organization become polarized like the country is on almost every issue, it will weaken their influence in the future, but that is most likely the administration's objective.
