Stung by breach after breach after breach after gaffe at the White House, the Secret Service is asking Congress for $8 million -- so it can build another White House.

New Director Joseph Clancy will today ask the House Appropriations Committee for $8 million to construct a detailed replica of the presidential mansion in Beltsville, Maryland, right down to the East and West wings, the outside façade, guard booths, grounds, and roads.
