TheInsider — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 20:06:00 GMT

Congress on Monday called for an aspiring reality TV show couple to testify and explain how they successfully crashed a private White House dinner party last Tuesday night, according to a new report. CNN reports that House Homeland Security Committee chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson is asking for both the couple and the head of the Secret Service, Mark Sullivan, to testify at a hearing on Thursday about the breakdown in security that ultimately allowed the couple to meet President Barack Obama without being on the party's guest list. "This is a time for answers, recognition of security deficiencies past and present, and remedies to ensure the strength of the Secret Service and the safety of those under its protection," Thompson said in a statement to CNN.

My confidence in the management of the Secret Service hangs in the balance." The polo-playing socialites, Tareq and Michaele Salahi, were scheduled to sit down on CNN's "Larry King Live" tonight, but have canceled their appearance.
