Are you skeptical of the White House intruder story?

This video makes some points:

Could the Secret Service be this incompetent (and the exception to American exceptionalism? Has it actually been infiltrated?

And why aren't Americans demanding a complete turn-over?

    It's not that big a story. The White House is home to human beings like you and I. So an unauthorised person got in, it's not the end of the world. I haven't looked into it in great detail because across the world there are far more serious concerns.

    Obama doesn't give a damn about my security so why should I be concerned about his?

    My biggest concern as an American taxpayer (if I was one) would be that the Secret Service are paid to ensure these things don't happen and so obviously one would want to know why his tax dollars are not being used effectively. Having said that its not as if you can opt out of contributing to the security of the POTUS, your hard earned money would be better off looking after your loved ones but it's not up for discussion. As a UK taxpayer, I can sympathise with that, Buckingham palace is under 24 hour guard at my expense, if I could withdraw my contributions to that I would do so without question

    Is the point that you're insane?

    I put your "skepticism" down to the hollywood effect. This is where people watch a lot of movies and then come to confuse how things happen in the movies for real life. This is where so many member of the public get their idea that the CIA is filled with super spies, because they've seen James Bond movies. In the movies, there always is a conspiracy which is ultra powerful. In the movies, you have no problem finding hundreds of minions who are loyal to the death and willing to wear jumpsuits.
