Obama Girls To Visit the White House
Source: ABC News

ABC News' Matthew Jaffe Reports: A week after she toured her new home alongside her husband President-elect Barack Obama, Michelle Obama on Tuesday is bringing her daughters and her mother to the White House at the invitation of First Lady Laura Bush.

Mrs. Obama has been in Washington this week looking for new schools with her two daughters, Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7. But their future residence also warranted a visit, so with Michelle's mom, Marion Robinson, the four will head across town this afternoon to the White House.

President Bush's daughters Jenna and Barbara are also in town for the visit.

"In addition to bringing the girls to D.C. to visit choices for their new schools to make sure they find the right fit, Mrs. Obama and her family are also visiting the White House briefly this afternoon," Mrs. Obama's spokeswoman Katie McCormick Lelyveld said in a statement. "The First Lady graciously invited Mrs. Obama, her mother and the girls to visit what will be their new home. Of course, Mrs. Obama greatly appreciated this invitation to provide an opportunity for the girls to feel at home and be comfortable in this transition process."

5. Oh..... Thanks for that "enlightenment"
I hold high hopes for Barack Obama.

Not so much for 'Obama Girl' ~ she's pandering to the 'cheap' and base.

AND, she's an opportunist ~ cheap, cheep, cheap........

2. Will Laura discuss with Michelle what it's like to raise two girls in the
White House and show her where she hides the keys to the liquor cabinet?

Bad joke, I know but I couldn't resist.

6. I hope Sasha and Malia had a nice visit!
I was more than a little astonished this morning to hear our right-wing next door neighbor telling me that Barack Obama will have the same "appeal" as JFK and his young family did, and she's looking forward to his administration.

I am, too. It's nice to know there will be someone we can all be proud of when we're talking to friends and family members around the world, isn't it?
