The White House must not approve of keeping a key under the mat -- President Obama is locked out of his home and the Oval Office after returning from a five-day vacation with family.
The Obamas returned from their Latin America getaway, in late March, a few hours ahead of schedule. Video of the President's family shows the Obama return, his wife and kids traipsing across the White House lawn. In the meantime, Obama circles the Oval Office -- blocked by two locked doors before he finally discovers an unlocked access point.
Worthy of a few laughs, and some alarm: if White House staff wasn't aware of Obama's early arrival home, it also couldn't have been highly aware of the President's exact whereabouts during those hours.
