    Under fire for allegedly hosting a secret Halloween theme party featuring movie star Johnny Depp at the White House in 2009, President Obama's spokesman punched back, calling reports about the party "irresponsible" and denying that the White House tried to hide the event from the public.

    "There are outlets that have reported this as a secret party, which is just silly -- it's irresponsible reporting to suggest that you would have a pool report and the press at an event that's secret" White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said today during the press briefing, adding that photos of Johnny Depp were available from the party. "This wasn't a publicity event, this was an event for military children," Carney also noted.

    According to a book written by a New York Times columnist, the White House held an "Alice in Wonderland" theme party in 2009. "White House officials were so nervous about how a splashy, Hollywood-esque party would look to jobless Americans -- or their representatives in Congress, who would soon vote on health car," the New York Post quotes the book as recounting, "that the event was not discussed publicly and [movie director Tim] Burton's and Depp's contributions went unacknowledged."

    Not even the least bit funny, you are definitely one of the most obnoxious posters P&R has seen in a while.

    Btw do yo mind telling us whose sock puppet you are??? It seems very strange that you dont post for 4 years and then just decide one day to start spamming the P&R section with obnoxious far left non sense.
