The Obamas are partying it up at the WH...
according the Wing Nut Daily...

snip:
"Using one of the world’s most famous private residences as bait, President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama are unleashing a bipartisan charm offensive and exploiting every square inch of their new home to make friends and influence rivals. The social calendar suggests a return to the days of Camelot," the report said.

"Since moving into their new digs, the first couple has hosted a half-dozen gatherings – from bipartisan cocktail receptions to a public open house to the more intimate Super Bowl party ... ending many of their days past midnight," the report said.

"Most recently … the Obamas opened the White House doors to House caucus leaders from the moderate Blue Dog Democrats and the Congressional Black Caucus. White House aides say the couple hopes to make the Wednesday cocktail parties a tradition."

1. The Today Show this AM did a segment on Michelle and mentioned the Wednesday night parties.

2. Bait? Hey, who in their right mind (besides dimson) wouldn't
be using the WH in any way they can, and have fun doing so? I'll bet there are times both Obamas would just as soon go to their private quarters and watch tv, but they're doing what needs to be done.

And wingnut daily, their criticism is laughable on any day.

4. OMG!!! What's Next? Playdates for the kids??????
It's called being open and unashamed of holding the office......



Or, for Our Christian Friends and Pseudo-Christian lurking Freepers:

"For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God" (Jn. 3:20-21).

5. They didn't mention the sleepovers the girls have had...
how much popcorn they ate, how late they stayed up with lights on... Sheesh!

I wondered how long it would take before they costed all the food and drinks the Obamas wasted on the Washington crowd, as well as those..."you know..." PEOPLE from the streets.

There isn't one thing those two can do that will be accepted by these groups. The last time I remember criticism like this was when Clinton was in office. Must have something to do with Democrats. Those sinful folks, you know?

Too bad they didn't watch the money when the Repugs were in office.
