Politico reported Obama attending the party, named the cabinet secretaries in the pool report but nixed mentioning the partying reporters.

And we have the nit-wit Jimmy Carter in drag in the WH.

Jake Tapper @KristinnFR have also attended social events thrown by GOP officials. Doesn’t impact reporting except as way to meet potential sources

*******
Yes, but was another country burning while the GOP officials partied?

That’s just bull from Tapper. Of course, it affects their reporting. They want to stay on Obama’s good side so they do favorable stories on him.

Still more laser-like focus and “not resting until”.

The Washington Post reports Obama was drinking champagne at the party and names more attendees:

There Obama stunned guests* by lingering for nearly two hours and mingling easily. With a glass of champagne, he toasted his adviser for taking a chance on him back in '04.

SNIP

* You want names? Arne Duncan; Steve Chu; Tim Geithner; Julianna Smoot; Bill Burton; Jay Carney; Carol Browner; Axelrod's assistant Eric Lesser, who presented his boss with an autographed picture of Arnold Palmer (because apparently Axelrod drank Arnold Palmers all day instead of coffee); Jon Favreau; Samantha Power and Cass Sunstein; Stephanie Cutter; Reggie Love; Dan Pfeiffer; David Plouffe; Maureen Dowd; E.J. Dionne; Ed Henry; Gwen Ifill; Judy Woodruff; many, many others...

The media needs to stop this charade and investigate this administration from the top down.

The media is part of this charade. Probably most of them were at the party.
