WASHINGTON (AP) - A member of the House panel that oversees the Secret Service says the security lapse that allowed a couple to crash a White House state dinner is unforgiveable and must be corrected.
Rep. Peter King said "we can't show this type of weakness to terrorists, to psychopaths."
The New York Republican joined Sens. Evan Bayh of Indiana and Jon Kyl of Arizona in calling for an investigation of the incident in which Michaele and Tareq Salahi were allowed into the state dinner for the visiting prime minister of India on Tuesday night.
King told NBC's "Today" show on Monday that a full investigation is necessary "to find out exactly what the Secret Service is doing to make sure this never happens again."
