Press corps kept in dark on Obama trip to Dover AFB

Dana Mathewson

Strange treatment of WH press lapdogs while president flies to Dover AFB to meet coffins of victims of helicopter "crash" in Afghanistan: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/44/post/press-corps-kept-in-dark-about-obamas-dover-trip/2011/08/10/gIQATlKy6I_blog.html

The only photo shows the president, in silhouette, actually saluting. There is speculation this'll show up in a Photoshop job in campaign literature somewhere.

It doesn't say in the article, but I am assuming this helicopter "crash" is the one where the Taliban shot down a chopper carrying a number of SEALs from SEAL Team 6, the unit that was responsible for uniting Osama bin Laden with his virgins.
