White House Party Crashers Get Their Reality Show After All (Why not Federal Prison?)
They broke into the White House grounds. Jail them. Hell, jail them just for being on a reality show.

White House Party Crashers Get Their Reality Show After All

When Michaele and Tareq Salahi crashed the White House State dinner, we all assumed this meant they would no longer be in the upcoming Real Housewives of D.C. But the producers realized the Salahis were the only thing they had.

You will be able to catch the Salahi's—who were most recently spotted for maybe trying to crash another State Dinner—on Real Housewives of D.C. starting August 5 on Bravo.

1. They didn't break in, they were let in. They didn't steal or doing anything illegal
once on the grounds. This was an administrative error at the Whitehouse, not a criminal act.

What a stupid suggestion, federal prison. With all the really important shit hitting the fan just now,... oh, nevermind.

2. I heard Courtney Hazlett talking to Tamron Hall about this on MSNBC
one day last week. Apparently the BRAVO TV crew was with them in that limo along with their makeup crew. I was surprised because BRAVO normally is one of the better cable channels.

4. Ever watch the Real Housewives of NY, NJ, Orange County, etc.?
Kind of trashy reality tv. Bravo does have some good shows on it but those shows are puke-worthy.

5. Sad how many channels that used to be great have gone downhill.

6. Bravo used to be 'arty'. then it got sold and became trashy.
I admit to watching Top Chef, Kathy Griffin, though....

3. Technically they did nothing illegal... they did not "break into" the white house
They presented themselves at the gate. They provided their own identification. They were let in. Period. End of story. It's not illegal to be let into a party when you aren't on the list.
