Charles and Camilla not welcome in White House
George Bush has banned Camilla Parker Bowles from the White House - because she is a divorcee.
The unprecedented snub has effectively sabotaged Charles's plan to take his bride on a Royal tour of America later this year.
The trip would have been the pair's first official tour as a married couple.
But the US President - a notoriously right-wing Christian and reformed alcoholic - told aides it was "inappropriate" for him to be playing host to the newly-weds, who are both divorcees.
OK, all you new Memians -- help us put together a list of other divorced folks who should also be kept out of the idealogically pure White House. There's Newt Gingrich, of course, and a handful of others listed here like Susan Molinari, George Will, Bob Dole, and of course Rush Limbaugh. But what juicy bits can we dig up on current White House denizens?
