The White House Correspondents Association is strongly urging the Obama administration to allow press access to the president’s official swearing-in ceremony on Jan. 20, following indications from inauguration committee officials that the event could potentially be closed to the press.
“Mindful of the historic nature of this occasion, we expect the White House will continue the long tradition of opening the President’s official swearing-in to full press access, and we as an organization are looking forward to working with the administration to make that happen,” Ed Henry, the Fox News correspondent and president of the White House Correspondents Association, said in a statement.

Love that Zimbabwe tradition.
the press is backing a Marxist dick-tater surely they know and love all the trappings that go with that?
Also remember the unusual visit by then president elect to the Supreme Court?

’ it may prove impossible to prosecute an illegal alien for treason,’
If ever we are lucky enough to be able to prosecute obama, we will prosecute him as a US citizen since he claims to be born in Hawaii - if he then claims he is not a US citizen because he was born in Kenya, then we will prosecute him on his fraud and perjury.
His ‘oath’ is not worth a penny since he is constitutionally ineligible.
He wants to use a Koran, not a bible, to be sworn in...so help me Allah.
obama letting his foot licking media know how much respect he has for them.
Why would The Won feel the need to exclude the press?
Especially after ALL they have done for him!!!
Justice Roberts provided cover the first go around because of the (pre-planned) flubbing of Obama’s name and Obama’s recitation thereof.
The same excuse won’t fly this time around...
Exactly.. public or private, it doesn`t matter. We`re still stuck with this POS for (at the very least) four more years.
I.... Barak Obama, Barry Soetoro, Barry Obama, John Brunell (lol), swear, #@**^%$, to undo the Constitution of the United States so help me Alah.
Now, did he sign the EO that closed all of his personal records after his first swearing in but before the second “official” one??
I know the secrecy EO was Zer0’s first piece of legislation, but if it occured before official swearing in, is it the law of the land?
Dear loyal press corps:
Suck it.
Sincerely,
Your President and Adored Leader, Barack Hussein Obama
Rutherford Hayes.
Obama probably wants to take the oath of office with his hand on the Quran.
EODGUY
It doesn't look like his hand is on anything. Which is probably what he really wants.
Whoa! What if he just stopped right there like four others did? How cool would that have been?
