It hasn’t even been a week since White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest came down hard on photo ops:
Josh Earnest: “When you prioritize photo-ops ahead of solutions to actual problems, you aren’t really accomplishing very much"
— Charlie Spiering (@charliespiering) July 11, 2014
And already, he’s doing an about-face:
The president "won't hesitate to participate" in photo-ops that "reinforce our values," @PressSec says.

Because it’s all about the face. Obama’s face, that is.
That's why he likes self-driving cars, but can criticize "people who put photo-ops ahead of finding solutions," @PressSec explains.

Because values! Or something.
@whpresscorps @eilperin @PressSec Yo Josh…apparently shooting pool is a value that every home reinforces. No really, are yall that stupid?
