Also, supposedly the extravagance of the party was "hidden" from the public, even though the press was invited and they posted pics on flickr.

Obama threw a Halloween party for children of the troops on his first Halloween in office. Conservatives think it was hushed, even though white house employees took pictures of the even and posted them on the internet. And Rush Limbaugh is a moron.

Obama can literally do nothing right in the eyes of Fox News. See: this thread (http://forums.fstdt.net/fstdt-lounge/the-fox-news-headline-game/) and its origin story.
