Reggie Love talks about playing cards with President Obama the day Osama bin Laden died
Nikki Schwab (Courtesy Artists & Athletes Alliance)
Sure, the most famous image from the day Osama bin Laden died was taken in the Situation Room, with President Obama, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Vice President Joe Bidens pursed faces clearly in view. But former Obama body man Reggie Love painted another picture from that day, too.
Most people were like down in the Situation Room and [President Obama] was like, Im not going to be down there, I cant watch this entire thing, Love recalled.
So the POTUS, Love, White House photographer Pete Souza and staffer Marvin Nicholson holed up in the nearby private dining room and played cards. We must have played 15 games of spades, Love said....

“Artist Pete Souza”
So.....on the day of the OBL raid...
First they yank Obama off the golf course and beg him to approve the OBL mission;
then they yank him and Pete Souza out of an all-night (sarc) card game to do a photo-op in the SitRoom.
I wonder who else they pulled into the SitRoom just for the photo-op?
BTW: Curious....does anyone know approx how long it takes 4 people to play 15 games of Spades?

Or maybe the whole thing was a fake and Osama had been dead for years already. Why waste time watching a raid of OBL’s son’s house? I’d prefer to play spades too.

Barry and Reggie at cards?
Obviously they were playing 'Hearts,' which can be awfully challenging with two Red Queens.
BTW, is Barry trying Reggie out for Jay Carney's job? Or are the dynamic duo just jiggling the doorknob on their 'secret' closet?
Has anyone called the ASPCA? I fear for Bo The Dog living with all this dysfunction.

Barry ‘finding’ his BC still does not excuse the WH creation of the forged BC. I suppose the defense will be, “Fake But Accurate?”

Playing cards? Some kind of metaphor I presume.

President Obama] was like, Im not going to be down there, I cant watch this entire thing,Because a staged event isn't worth getting all hyper. Of course, he's going to play cards or whatever else they were doing.
Wow, who knew that your original filed bc follows you wherever you go instead of sitting nicely in the record book where it belongs. Yes, it took him far too long to produce it. Ten dollars and it'd have been in front of the cameras in less than 3 minutes unless it wasn't in Hawaii and he had to forge one or two or three.
