Is there some connection to F&F or Solyndra or else why are they trying to stop the media talking about this?
Why? Because it is a cheap and tawdry display of everything people dislike about this president. A vulger display of wealth, rich exclusionist group of friends, disgusting ideas of humor, combined with a crass bit of pandering to the military. Not to mention the appalling hypocrisy of using the children of veterans in a campaign event as they reduce the size and strength of the military. The kids' parents are in combat risking their necks and the president serves them up fake 'vials of blood'.
Maybe that's why. Just a theory.
