Where are the representatives of the real stakeholders - the immigrants? Surly they could have gotten some folks from organizations that support immigrants. Or are they there and I'm just not recognizing them?

There is no way the White House would release a tone deaf photo like this with that caption.

The only thing missing is Mitt Romney sitting in the Presidents chair.
