16. Hey
She can have tea with Michelle and the girls in the Yellow Oval Room



Which is right next door to the Lincoln Bedroom,where she will sleep when she visits



or MAYBE the Queen's Bedroom across the hall



Then Barack, Michelle, the girls, and grandma, can have a nice family meal in the President's Dining Room



While the presidential chefs whips up a nice meal in the President's Kitchen


And the girls will play in their bedroom, the West Bedroom,



While the adults retire to the living room to chat



Or shoot the breeze on the Truman Balcony


Then everyone will all part ways in the Central Hall to say goodnight



And Barack will make his way back downstairs to the Oval Office,



Where he will be if any calls should come in at 3 am

30. What a soothing thread to
get on after the explosion on DU today! I checked in at work and my heart fell to the pit of my stomach..how sad for Spitzer and his family. Never in a million years would I think that would happen.

12. She doesn't need a piece of land; she needs a house
I think a beautiful White House would meet her needs well.

22. Are the Clinton's planning to rent out their Georgetown
or Chappaqua houses? I didn't know that. We can safely predict that unless they purchase new property, that's all they'll have to rent out.

24. Oh, I don't think they need Rezco
not when they have pals like Giustra, Gupta, Hsu, Paul and so many others. How much dirty money has Hlly had to return? I know it's well over a million.
