>>Baker's widow, Heidy, and grandson, Vernon Pawlik, 10, were denied entry because the boy was wearing shorts and a T-shirt. His shirt had a picture of his grandfather on it.

>>A White House Web site doesn't list a dress code, but the family had been invited to tour the West Wing, which houses the president's office and where casual dress is prohibited.>
>If they play their cards right that is sure invitation to a state dinner or a sleepover at the Whitehouse .... or an invitation to speak at the 2012 GOP National Convention <bg>
