Facing another major embarrassment, the White House is working overtime to make it appear that 16-year-old Vífill Atlason did not decipher President George W. Bush’s secret phone number after Jenna Bush called her dad during a recent taping of the Ellen show.
In fact, in an effort to cover-up the story, White House spokeswoman Emily Lawrimore lied to ABC News, saying that that the Icelandic teen did not dial the private number but instead dialed 202-456-1414, the main switchboard for the West Wing.
“But that was not the case,” according to the report. “The student gave ABC News the number. It is indeed an extention off the White House switchboard and goes to a security command post office in the building next door to the White House.”
Atlason’s mother has expressed surprise that the White House would carry out a defamation plot against her son, but Atlason himself is taking the situation in stride.
“If the number were not top secret, why would the police have told me that I will be put on a no-fly list to America?” Vífill asked. “I don’t see how calling the White House is a crime. But obviously, they took it very seriously.”
Bush lies about big, small and everything in between.
SherKhan: Lying is the default option. The only other appears to be stonewalling. The maxim “the truth hurts” was minted for the likes of this administration.
I’m pretty sure it’s not the default option, per se…It’s more like the first choice at the bottom of the Choose Your Own Adventure page.
Your daughter called you from the Ellen show and an Icelandic teen got the phone number and called you. This is potentially embarrassing. Do you:
Falsify reports and send police to his door ….. p. 62
Ignore the small media coverage ….. p. 103
Laugh it off and admit to it ….. p. CLASSIFIED
[…] OMG, Jenna Bush is, like, in so much more trouble now. […]
Does anyone else think that the stupid girl who tried to call the president is partially responsible? Did she think she would be able to tell the Pres what’s up? Does she not have any friends?
LOL! He’s a boy.
Or is he a boy? Have we seen the evidence proving that he is in fact male?
Sen. Craig will lead the Senats’s inquiry, and Rep. McCrery will lead the House’s inquiry.
And while the White House would like to comment on the Icelandic youth’s gender, because of the ongoing preliminary investigation into the matter, no comment can be offered at this time.

[…] white house cover-up on teenage infiltration White House PR is attempting to cover up an alleged infiltration to the President himself via a prank call from Iceland. The White House alleges that the 16 year old boy did not in fact call the private line; but, instead called the main line, which is on the website. The boy, and several others say he was able to decipher the numbers Jenna Bush dialed on her cell phone to get her Daddy on the Ellen show. […]
