Title: Bill Gates refused entrance to the White House
Post by: amigamad on June 30, 2003, 05:40:01 PM

From The Inquirer comes news that Bill Gates was refused entry to the White House because he wasn't carrying ID.  It must be nice to be able to think you're so widely known and rich that you don't have to carry even basic identification.

The article at The Inquirer (http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=10205)

Although if the security guy with the rubber glove had more involvement in the event it would have been quite amusing :-)

In this time of uncertain security; places such as the White House should have heavy duty BARRIER - GATES (http://www.greenwoodtrust.org.uk/images/Barriergates.jpg) -- or, is that, GATES BARRIERS?  :-)
