1. nice looking couch, looks comfortable, and acts as a velvet rope


for the media. and softens up the meeting room.

I like that the media is shown so we get the sense of it all.

8. Y'know, I'm Down With Sunshine Laws And Everything
But at what point does a meeting stop being a photo op and start become a meeting?

10. I'm sure that the meeting has already taken place.
The fact that the head of the Republican Governor's group wants Obama's stimilus passed is quite noteworthy, and photos are needed for proof.

In the meantime, the Corporate Media are on a 24/7 assault on the stimulus plan. I've never seen so many Republicans on Television until last week and this week.

They actually didn't show the President live, because they were busy covering what the minority Senate leader was saying in his press conference.

It appears that things are skewed, as they always are, in favor of the Republicans, no matter that they are weak as hell, other than the media propping them up (as usual).

15. Yeah, the corporatemedia is trying to pump up the
repukes from the dungeon as always. I'm still thinking Team Obama has people working on ways to get their message out inspite of the cmwhores..just like they did in the primaries and general.

13. These are some of the few pictures where Obama is not showing a genuine smile.
Perhaps the selection is just an off representation, but none of those photos show the true smile Obama so easily exhibits while in the cameras' aim. I wonder what went down during that meeting?
