White House Spokeswoman Says Different Bertha Lewis on Visitor's Log

According to Politico's Ben Smith, the Bertha Lewis who went to the White House is not ACORN's CEO but another woman named "Bertha Lewis." I contacted Smith to tell him that Big Government would offer a correction if the "administration official" who offered the information went on record and told us who the "other" Bertha Lewis is and got the unnamed administration source to come out from behind the veil of anonymity and use his/her name.

Which Bertha Lewis was it?
A different Bertha Lewis.

So far, according to unnamed White House sources, "different" people with the familiar names of Malik Shabazz, Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers were discovered on White House visitors logs.

Wottabout them others?
They're different too.

More than one set of parents abused their child by naming it Malik Shabazz?

As I skeptically asked on my Twitter account, "What are the odds?"

First thing Monday morning, Smith contacted the White House and White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki came from behind her anonymous veil and confirmed for Smith, "it was a different Bertha Lewis, though she declined to share details about that visitor, citing privacy reasons."'

#1 These are not the Bertha Lewises you are looking for? Nice try, Jen!

#2 Let's be realistic now. There are probably several people named Bertha Lewis, and all of them want to visit the White House, each for their own reason. Just like there are several gorbs out there, and all of them want to visit the White House, too. Probably for different reasons, too. Now that I think about it, there are probably several people named Dick Cheney who want to visit the White House to invite someone to go hunting with them. I wonder how many dozens of visitors named George Bush visited the White House just to joke about having the same name as the former President. Or how many folks named Barack Obama have shown up. Or people named Monkeysshootingbottlerocketscomeflyingoutofmyass have shown up, too. So it could happen.

#3 I should think they'd have security cameras taking a picture of every guest unless they intentionally want these things secret.

good one, gorb. A comment like that will get you on a TSA no-fly list, and a standing invitation to the WH.
