Yesterday comedian and talk show host Ellen DeGeneres was in Washington D.C. to receive the Medal of Freedom from President Obama. Before making her way into the White House, DeGeneres was held outside because she forgot to bring identification.

Oopsie.
President Obama and many of his liberal supporters are opposed to identification requirements for voting, but apparently don't have an issue with identification requirements (even for well-known celebrities) at the White House.
