deck chair shuffling practice will follow the event..
According to CBS’ Mark Knoller, there will be NO WH pool coverage (?), just like his golfing today.

Actually, your “party on” tag probably isn’t justified in this instance.
The Gridiron scholarship dinners — local or national — aren’t something most politicians enjoy, because the skits are generally wickedly funny and can be downright mean. It takes a thick skin to sit through it, particularly for a narcissist.
Note that Obama has made excuses and avoided this event until now.
He may put on a smiley face, but he won’t have a good time.
The white House Parrot Corpse. Will be Orgasmic.
Absolutely clueless, tone deaf, stupid imposters.
I hear he is playing golf today. Hasn’t anyone bothered to tell him how that looks considering all that is happening today? (Or is he just that shallow)

The Middle Eat erupts in flames - throw a party!
Japan gets a double hit of an earthquake and tsunami, is burried in rubble and dead with the threat of a nuke meltdown - throw a party!!
That Zero sure is a class act.
Never let a chance for a party to go to waste.
Obama doesn't have a sense of humor...The only thing funny about him is: Throwing a baseball, wincing when someone gets thrown in judo, his elephant ears....
Gosh, I feel like a bully....
I think the dinner should totally be cancelled...Nothing more than bullies....
Does anyone care?
Always thought these dinners were waste of a president’s time.
