1. What's with all the people in the lab coats and scrubs?
If I was going to meet the President, I'd wear a suit.

Sheesh!

3. The WH said, "be sure to wear your lab coats....."
"because the President wants to be seen surrounded by physicians. If you dont have one, one will be provided."

(I'm kidding, but that's prob. not too far from the truth)

6. I'm sure that's exactly what happened.
I was just making a joke before, but I personally would feel weird going to the White House to meet the President in my work clothes.

The one time I did go to the White House was on the general tour. I was probably wearing shorts and a t-shirt.
