Geithner probably lent them his tax program and most likely they’re all Dems ....so they don’t have to pay.....
To: JRochelle
I hope they all lose their jobs, and have to go to the White House looking for a meal.

Sorry, but I think this is a non-story.........
“About 50 members of the White House press corps accepted President Bush’s invitation last night to come over to his house in Crawford, eat his food, drink his booze, hang around the pool and schmooze with him — while promising not to tell anyone what he said afterward......
The invitations to the reporters were issued on the condition that they not discuss conversations at the event.”

More Presidential openness. He has a party and the revelers are sworn to secrecy..
Good Gawd. What have we gotten ourselves into.

Slight difference there. Bush was inviting them to his private home. Obama was using the White House and undoubtedly taxpayer money went to buying the silence and goodwill of the press.

I think the point is that they were sworn to secrecy in order to attend.
We all know they gather at various functions for all administrations.
