President Obama met with some of the talking heads at MSNBC yesterday to discuss...tax rates? More likely, how best to follow the White House talking points on tax rates.
The meeting included noted tax expert Al Sharpton - whose intimate knowledge of the IRS includes the fact that he owes $1.5 million in back taxes - Rachel Maddow, and MSNBC's resident crazy man Lawrence O"Donnell. No one saw Chris Matthews enter the White House, which is not really surprising considering some of the wayward comments about Obama he's made recently.
Daniel Halper:
President Barack Obama met with several MSNBC hosts this afternoon at the White House to discuss tax rates, according to Huffington Post reporter Jennifer Bendery. The reporter wondered if an "MSNBC love fest" was going on at the White House.
Here's Bendery's reporting, in a series of tweets:
Just passed Al Sharpton walking into the WH.

Also, Al Sharpton is so unbelievably tiny now. I actually gasped when I saw him pass by just now. Hope he's ok.

Rachel Maddow is now in the West Wing. How do I know this? I just walked in with her.
- jennifer bendery (@jbendery) December 4, 2012
Never met Maddow until now. We kind of look alike, esp today. My intro: "Are you my long lost sister?" Her: "Glad we both got the memo."

Maddow, heading into West Wing, said she was here for a "hippie cabal." Asked if I was coming. NO, DAMN IT, I WASN'T INVITED.

So... in the last hour, I watched Rachel Maddow, Al Sharpton and Lawrence O'Donnell all walk into the West Wing. MSNBC love fest?
The Obama propaganda machine is gearing up for the fiscal cliff fight. MSNBC has apparently received their marching orders and we can now expect completely balanced and unbiased reporting from them, right?
Right?
