An Obama rejection …
President-elect Barack Obama just got nixed!
Chicago Sun Times
by Michael Sneed
Sneed hears the White House has rejected a recent request by Obama to occupy Blair House, the president-elect’s Washington residence, at an earlier date.
• To wit: Sneed hears Obama wanted to move his family and his transition team to Blair House, which is across from the White House, nearly two weeks before the president-elect historically moves there on Jan. 15 — five days before the inaugural.
• The backshot: A source tells Sneed: “There were reportedly two reasons for the request: Obama’s children start school in early January — and the move could be interpreted as a New Year’s symbolic gesture showing the president-elect in a presidential capacity across from the White House on Jan. 2, the day after New Year’s Day.”
• The buckshot: Blair House, the president’s guest house for visiting dignitaries, nixed the request. “It was a polite rejection,” the source added. “But I’m told Blair House was appalled.”
• Responses: An Obama spokesman tells Sneed they were told Blair House had guests until Jan. 15. … Sally McDonough, a spokesman for first lady Laura Bush, tells Sneed: “Respectfully, we are keeping transition conversations quiet. But Jan. 15 is historically the time when incoming presidents occupy Blair House, which is the president’s guest house.”
Wild Thing’s comment………
OMG!!! what tribe of brazen loosers!! Every other President played by the rules: No checkin till Jan. 15th, but NOT these POS’S! No Siree! Pigs!
Barak Hussein and Michelle HO-bama and their mentality of entitlement.
The Rats never want to follow the rules.
The girls should be in a classroom in Chicago after the end of the Christmas holidays – the school they have been attending since September – not parachuting into a brand new school.
The Obamas are using the girls for an excuse to get to DC ahead of their appointed day and hour. Obama played the parent card to try to get what he wanted.
….Thank you Lynn for sending this to me.
A quote from Lynn:
“One of my hubby’s cousins owned Blair House–Senator Thomas Ewing of Ohio. He was supposed to have been William Henry Harrison’s running mate. That’s how close his family came to being President. No, Obama, you can’t move in early. Stay at a Motel 6. ”
I agree Lynn!!!
Fantastic Chrissie and Lynn. The unmitigated hubris of the Obama’s. It’s the two presidents in the arena BS, this is a good slapdown and for good reason, the arrogant SOB hasn’t been confirmed by the Electoral College nor sworn in, he’s just another interloper until then. So Rod nepotised his wife Patti Blagojevich , nothing unethical there, it’s like working for Root, Brown and Root in illinois, the granddaddy of nepotism.
Glad to hear that someone finaly said no to them. Would love to have heard their response to the denial. Thanks Lynn. Happy Sunday all ! Yea GOD.
Great story WT & Lynn. The W’s simply had to tell the CHILDREN… “NO!” And no is no, you know? The Obamessiah can’t CHANGE “NO!” eh? For 18 freaking months I heard Obama say “Bush this and Bush that in negative speak…” and now, the King of Change – the man without a VALID birth certificate – wants to be polite and act courteously? Sorry, but “NO!”
Tonight on C-Span is the Laura Bush White House tour and one-hour show. I will miss Laura, big time!
Arrogance, plain and simple arrogance.
What? Can’t the girls bunk with the Bidens or something for two weeks??
Thanks Lynn & Chrissie!
broke up some of the depression been havein!
One reason: Obama’s children start school in early January
I call BS on that!
As a local, I know for a FACT that parents can live anywhere in this area and send their children to Sidwell Friends.
And doesn’t BHO have a D.C. residence anyway? After all, he served in the Senate. He must have a townhouse or condominium in D.C.
Wild Thing, I’d like to invite you, Nick and your readers to join us at The Texas Gun Owners Association Forum
It’s NOT just for Texans, ALL gun lovers are welcome!
I thought obama was working for the ‘little-guy’, and trying to better his lot in life. Another he feels our pain moment. Our kids go to the rotten public schools and his go to a Very Special School, Michelle gets a necklace worth 30K, yeah thats the change we’ve been looking for.
So Bush finally grew a pair and turned down Hobama, … ‘Aint that a shame’ I can hear Fats singing that all the way from the Chocolate City.
Jack, thanks for the link and information on Root,Brown, Root.
Your right Obama has not even finished the finale vote that has to be done. He really has a lot of nerve the wanna be King. grrrrrr
James M. hahaha yes it sure feels good.
Darth, Big hgue smile…. yes Obama cannot change this NO he got. It makes me so happy.
BobF, it sure is, he really needs to be taken down a thousand nothches.
rickn8or, see that is the thing. They aren’t even thinking smart like your suggestion. That would be something they could do and that way if it is so important the children would be fine.
Hi Chief, oh good, I am so glad.
Just one more example of the elite, narcissistic, and arrogant President-elect and spouse POS wanting to be treated like messianic royalty.

Always On Watch, I thought that too that all the Sen. had or could have even an apt. in the area. It really is Obama being a total jerk and wanting exceptions to be made for him.
Texas Fred, thank you so much and for the link to it too.
Mark, LOL yes good one.
I am not positive, but I remember that Chelsea and also Bush’s daughters went to public school. But I am not positive.
Les, good one, the graphic fits perfectly.
WT–
My idea wasn’t that smart; I completely spaced out Obama’s having some residence in the DC area, or did he commute from Chicago every day?
