deec0d9bYou knew it had to happen…White House Social Secretary Desiree Rogers has just announced she is resigning:

After the fallout from her role in Tareq and Michaele Salahi and Carlos Allen’s unauthorized entry into a state dinner amid reports that the White House did not have staff at security checkpoints. The White House turned down the House Homeland Security Committee when it requested she testify about her role in the incident.

“As we turn the corner on the first year, this is a good time for me to explore opportunities in the corporate world,” Rogers told Chicago Sun-Times columnist Lynn Sweet, adding that it was “an honor and a privilege to serve this president and first lady, in what has certainly been a historic presidency.”

According to the huffingpost.com, a source close to Rogers tells Huffington Post that another factor in her upcoming departure may be mounting tension with White House senior adviser Valerie Jarrett. “Desiree has had enough and will leave because she’s butting heads with Valerie,” says the source.

    This is so sad IF this women is losing her position based on, “Antic’s, Clown Acts & Stupidity,” of some Chalked Faced, $Fame Hungry B**ches.! I’m sure other Claked Faces did this S**t when other Presidents were in office,I guess since they ALL LOOK A LIKE, THE SAME it did not matter? But up until Obama, Claked Faced Folks Ruled! If they were being fair about this S**t, if the women is forced out based on what those Party Crashers did? They SHOULD BE made great examples out of & have their A**’s Roasted, instead of being blown up, folk’s who’ll more than likely get TV, Book Deals, etc., No! Their Ass’s should be humiliated, have their Ass’s Roasted on National TV, so it will detour other B**ch of ANY Race/Sex to NOT try that s**t! After their ass’s is roasted? Let’s see their ass’s do a reality show, showcasing that? Let’s see them write a book, do TV/Talk Show Interviews EXPLAINING how it felt to have, “Ass’s who’s been Convicted, Humiliated & Racked Over the Fire! ROASTED ASS’S!

    Yes it’s sad that she had to resign over this crap but I still believe that if she was doing her job as far as being on her p’s and q’s, then she would have been able to shut down that whole deal. Listen, this is our President, our BLACK PRESIDENT and I feel as though those individuals should not have been able to get that close to him, enough to take pictures. I think whomever is in charge for having these events and inviting individuals, no matter who it is black or white, male or female, have to be on their job because hey it is the President we are talking about. She should have been more aware of what was going on and been able to shut that whole thing down before it came to the ordeal that it came to. Sorry to hear that she is loosing her job but when it comes to accountability, it is what it is!
