How’s the president going to get in? The White House was placed on lockdown Tuesday night after “smoking objects” were found near the North Portico, according to a Secret Service agent at the scene. President Obama was having dinner a few blocks away at BLT Steak, celebrating the first lady’s 48th birthday with friends. The object in question, believed by the Secret Service to be a smoke bomb, appeared on the property as Occupy Congress protesters staged a large rally in front of the White House.
