Rep. Barney Frank, a Democrat from Massachusetts and a lead negotiator on the package, said given the progress of the talks, the White House meeting scheduled for Thursday afternoon was a distraction.

“We're going to have to interrupt a negotiating session tomorrow between the Democrats and Republicans on a bill where I think we are getting pretty close, and troop down to the White House for their photo op,” said Frank, the House Financial Services Committee chairman. “I wish they’d checked with us.”

In other words, Barney, Patron Saint of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the White House photo op will interfere with your own photo op designed to obfuscate your personal culpability in the frickin' mess to begin with, you sigmoidal disgrace to the human race.
