This is...news.

I originally thought the thread was going to be about the national reduction of white people pretending to be black.

I think Varus was longing for an end to vapid commercialism among America's white middle-upper class teens. He saw Mean Girls the other night and it really touched him.

Am I surprised that they'd publicly end a long-standing practice? I guess not. They could have ended it without notice and I guess everyone in the nation who isn't a professional media photographer wouldn't know the difference anyway.

Slow news day?

So what you want is the government to continue lying to the American people, like it has for the last sixty plus years.

Pretty much.

Given that the speech itself was televised, I don't really see the issue with a few posed "class photos" but I don't see a reason to be upset about ending the practice either. It's a non-story.

Only if you believe this administration has been in charge for the last 60+ years.

Its a push back from a Reuters photographers blogging about how he took pictures of Obama reenacting walking down the aisle and the first few seconds of the speech for the photographers. If you'd have read the sto-- oh, right. Don't read or fact check.

I'd think you'd be more mad at the administration telling the photographers to either get it right the first time around or forget it, and how the previous action was a courtesy to allow the media to get the best possible pictures.

Even when making up random conspiracies about those damn liberals, varus just can't do it right.

Jealous my conspiracy theory makes more sense than yours? Its okay to be jealous of your superiors. Don't let it get you down.

I do like how you're now saying the story you linked is lying.
