Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ka mau ngā māngai Ratonga Tūmataiti ki te pupuhi mō te Perehitini o Te Hononga o Amerika, engari e kore rātou e kaukau mō ia. I te wā i rongo ai ngā kōmihana tūmatanui e whai mana ana ki te Whare Pōtae i ngā tono mō te whakapakari i te rohe o te whare perehitini, i kīia ki a rātau e kore te kāwanatanga e keri i tētahi kōhao huri noa i te whare. Ko taua whakaaro, i kitea mai, i whakaarohia kētia. Engari ko te NBC-TV4 i Washington i kii 'i puta te awangawanga mo te tango i nga tangata mai i reira.' I te mutunga, ka kaha ake te whakaaro: E tūtohu ana te Ratonga Paraka ā-Motu me te Ratonga Tūmataiti ki te tāpiri i te haurua inihi te matotoru o ngā tīhi, i tawhiti atu i te Whare Pōtae, ki te taiepa o nāianei. PANUI I RĀNUI mō ngā ataata. TĒNĀ KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI KA WHAKAMAHI I whakaaturia e tētahi teihana pouaka whakaata o Washington, DC tēnei tauira i te Rāhoroi, e whakaatu ana i ngā pū o te maitai e tata ana ki te tihi o te taiepa o te Whare Pōtae. Ko ngā pou hou, e mōhiotia ana ko ngā 'pōhunga pene,' ka tāpirihia ki runga ake mō te kotahi tau neke atu, i te wā e whakamaherehia ana, e hangaia ana hoki he taiapa hōu katoa <unk> kia 10 waewae te teitei. Tērā pea ka whiwhi te Whare Pōtae i tētahi taiepa taiepa-rua me te wāhi i waenganui, engari kua whakakorea te waea rākau. I kii tetahi mema o te US Congress i te marama o Noema ka pai ake te tiaki a te Secret Service i te perehitini me tona whanau mena ka whai te 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue i tetahi huarahi nui ake ki te haumarutanga me te moat. Ko te Kaituku Democrat o Tennessee a Steve Cohen i whakauru i te whakaaro hei waahanga o tana kaupapa whakaaro i roto i te huihuinga Q-and-A me te Kaiwhakahaere Ratonga Motuhake a Joseph Clancy i te wa o te whakarongo a Capitol Hill. 'Ka taea e te moat <unk> wai, e ono waewae a tawhio noa <unk> kia ahua o te ātaahua, me te whai hua?' ui Cohen tika-mata. He tangata ko Omar Gonzalez te ingoa i eke ki te arai rino i mua o te Whare Ma i te marama o Hepetema <unk> a rere ana ki te Whare Ma...
E mea ana ngā kaihautū o te Whare Pōtae e rite ana rātou ki te tūtohu kia whakaarahia ngā pou ki runga ake o ngā pou o te whare rangatira kia pai ake ai te tiaki i te perehitini. Ka tae mai te nekehanga i muri i te maha o nga kaikawe taiapa, tae atu ki tetahi i rere ki roto i te Whare Ma. I ui atu a Steve Cohen ki te tumuaki o te Ratonga Tūmataiti i te marama o Noema mēnā e hiahia ana te 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue ki tētahi awa e rua mita te roa. I whakaarohia taua whakaaro, engari i muri mai i whakakorehia mo nga awangawanga tiaki me te 'ki te whakahoki mai i nga tangata mai i reira'
