President Obama welcomed Rachel Maddow and Al Sharpton to the West Wing today, apparently to discuss tax rates, according to the Weekly Standard which wrote about it following a Huffington Post reporter's tweets.

The Standard quoted the tweets of Post reporter Jennifer Bendery who was at the White House and apparently saw both Maddow and Sharpton entering. Maddow reportedly joked with the reporter she was there for a "hippie cabal." Later, she wondered if it was an "MSNBC lovefest."
