    WH pool camera, no commentary allowed, no audience allowed. Afterward, the photogs were beckoned to take photos of the big moment where Barry walked confidently to the stage, where he delivered the first 30 seconds again.

    Do you think WH employees are the same thing as the media? If I'm a journalist in the military, does that make me the same as someone who works for the NYT? You're not really this ignorant, are you?

    The WH has an official photographer, and one camera allowed from teh press pool. You're flailing about tonight, because afterward, Obama had the media recreate his grand entrance.

    I'm sure you'll be cheering for him tomorrow as the Prez makes his first trip to Ground Zero.

    I'll be cheering for the SEAL6 unit who pulled off the mission.

    Well, you obviously don't know what the whitehouse pool is. So maybe you should go look that up and get back to me about who is ignorant.

    So the camera from the press pool isn't part of the media? Is that what you are claiming?

    So what? Doesn't change the fact that PapaG didn't understand the context.

    Why is it blue? Was it staged? How many takes to produce this picture? Transparency people. Transparency!

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Hey, buddy, there's no right or wrong here, just opinions. My opinion is that staging is just as controlling as restaging. No snark necessary.

    Staging is more controlling than re-staging. If it was properly controlled the first time - there would be no need for a retake!

    How about PRE-staging?

    Neo-Cons are digging deep to attempt to dish some dirt on Obama. Its pathetically comical.

    I seriously dont understand why Repubs are so defensive right now. Shouldn't we all be happy that we killed the guy responsible for 9/11?

    This is far from being "defensive".

    Smearing Obama because he was the President when our country caught Bin Laden just wreaks of party insecurity.

    Total red herring.

    Let's just ignore all of the suspicious events and circumstances as listed. They just keep on coming.
