"Long before a pair of gate-crashers penetrated a White House state dinner,
the Secret Service had detailed for its internal use a lengthy list of security breaches dating to the Carter 
administration 
-- including significant failures in the agency's protection of the president.

A summary of a secret 2003 report obtained by The Washington Post, along with descriptions of more recent incidents by 
federal homeland security officials, 
places Tareq and Michaele Salahi squarely in a rogues' gallery of autograph hounds, publicity seekers,
unstable personalities and others identified by the Secret Service as defeating its checkpoints at least 91 times since 
1980."
