The White House Social Secretary,Desiree Rogers, Is Resigning



Desiree Rogers is the graceful 50 yr. old beauty who currently holds the position of White House Social Secretary.According to Lynn Sweet,of the Chicago-Sun Times,she will be resigning in March.

After that fame-seeking couple crashed President Barack Obama’s first state dinner,there were a lot of calls for her to step down.I'm sure that all of those folks are delighted today.Especially Washington Post's Sally Quinn,who publicly called for her resignation.

Here's more from WSJ:

"White House social secretary Desiree Rogers, who has been under fire ever since Michaele and Tareq Salahi crashed President Barack Obama’s first state dinner, will resign in March, she told Chicago Sun-Times columnist Lynn Sweet.

“As we turn the corner on the first year,” Rogers told Sweet, “this is a good time for me to explore opportunities in the corporate world.”

Rogers has been a glamorous and somewhat controversial figure in the White House from the beginning, posing for fashion shots and bringing eye-catching style to her post but sometimes being accused of neglecting the nitty gritty of the job. When the Salahi security came to light, Secret Service leaders took the fall, saying they had neglected to keep a watchful eye on the guests coming into the dinner for Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

But critics said Rogers and her crew were equally responsible for matching the guests to the guest list."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.

Good to see Desiree Rogers will be gone soon. Her handling of the Obama administration’s first state dinner last November truly makes her a huckalero.
