The WH needs a class on copyright law.
Which begs the question who owns the picture? Does the photographer or the president own it? If it is the photographer was the photographer a government contractor or employee working in official capacity? If the president owns it how does that affect things, he wasn't working in official capacity.
Though, some will say he has never been working - officially or not.
You obviously don't know the Chicago way of doin' things.
