Sure would be nice if Pres Obama's meeting today with Congressional Leaders was open to press coverage. Or we were to get a live audio feed.

But nope. The president's 3pm session in the Oval Office with Boehner, Reid, McConnell & Pelosi is closed to reporters. Not even a photo op.—

But … but … weren’t negotiations supposed to be televised on C-SPAN so we’d all get to see exactly how the sausage is made?
@markknoller Whatever happened to televising all of this type of stuff on C-Span?—

It didn’t happen with Obamacare negotiations and the same goes for the fiscal cliff talks. Put on your shocked face.
