The White House won't allow President-elect Barack Obama and his family into the Blair House before the inauguration, saying that the traditional pre-presidential boarding suite had already been booked until five days before the swearing in. By who, a vindictive Ron Paul?
Either way, the Obamas are packing up their gear and moving to D.C. early, Blair House or no Blair House, so Malia and Sasha can begin Sidwell Friends on Monday, getting a good start on all those education reform promises.

I wonder if Blair House would have been available if McCain had won?
One assumes that it was known that SOMEONE was going to be coming to Washington to be inaugurated on January 20.
This seems very petty to me.
as a quote in the NY Times article says, you're trying to make a story out of something that really isn't an story.
the regular/traditional time that a pres-elect checks in is 5 days before their inauguration; this has not been changed for the upcoming Obama presidency.
Obama and his family asked to check in earlier than the standing schedule states, and it's already booked.
listen, I voted for the man and am thrilled that he won, but it's not like there's some racial conservative conspiracy here.
who gives a shit.
What nerve! Not letting Barack Hussein Obama and his family move in early? After all, you can't offend a muslim!
everyone is not an Obama ass kisser like you people here. Book a room Obama
Ain't it just like a Bro and his B—- to show up two weeks early and want the Bushes to make plans for them. Seems like pal oprah the rich witch of Chicgo could loan them her new supposed 50 million dollar house in D.C.
@ Bertha, Diane, Rhonda
You guys are asses.
52 million people voted against The Moderate One, so get used to the snarkiness. BO will receive the same warm welcome and respect that Bush received. Count on it.
Obama should keep his distance from Bush-the worst President for a long, long while. The evidence? Two wars, one of which was, literally, without reason. Trillion dollar deficits and massive borrowings from China, hocking our children's future. A massive recession, the worst since the Great Depression. Warrantless wiretapping of US citizens. Torture officially approved. There is much else. Could he have BEEN any worse?
Hey, Rhonda, you say "Ain't it just like a Bro and his B—- to show up two weeks early and want the Bushes to make plans for them.". Laura Bush is a B— too, as dumb as a bag of rocks, just like her incurious husband. AND she killed her then boyfriend in a car crash before she met W. Unlike Obama, W actually does have an alcohol and drug-soaked past. But that doesn't matter to Republitards: actual ability doesn't matter. Same with Madam Mooseburger, "The One" for you nitwits.
Obama is just another Chicago politician, nothing special…except to fucking morons who think the guy is god.
Hey "FuckGaza", if you had any real arguments, you would advance them. As it is, all you have is ignorant hatred and bigoted vitriol.
@Rhonda: Racist people suck! The Obama's want to have their kids start school after winter break. What a bunch of nasty F*cking bigoted A-holes on this post. Obama & Michelle are excellent roll models. W. was a drunk, and still is I bet, he's dumb as a box of dirt. Laura did kill a boy, but it was an accident. Bush is the worst president, ever- with the lowest rating ever. He & Cheney, and the rest of that administration should be tried, and convicted on war crimes, not to mention all the other shady shit they pulled. Then they should all be sent to GITMO!
@FuckGaza no one thinks Obama is God, but he's a hell of a lot smarter then W. and won this election with a a lot more votes- then Bush ever had, oh wait- Bush stole the election, maybe that's why he sucks -KARMA… Well in a couple of weeks Texas can have their idiot back.
Bush is not the worst president. Jimmy Carter took the title.
Obama talks more about Bush than his paper tissue thin record he has. Bush did put Obama in his place in Israel. You liberal idiots with all of your hate couldn't beat Bush (the man himself) when he was running for reelection in 2004. Ted Kennedy had sex with a young woman, killed her in a lake and did not reported for two days: while his wife was at home. Bush has degree in Yale and Harvard, MBA, and you idiots call him dumb. Bush has NEVER BEEN IN INMPEASHMENT EVEN WITH A DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY IN THE CONGRESS. You fools talk about inpeashment but only two presidents have been impeach, (Both Democrats) Andrew Johnson and Bill "blow job" Clinton. No republican has been impeash. Bush freed 50 million people while the so called-americans were againist FREEING the Iraqis from a terrorist state. (DemocRAT voted for the war before they were againist it)
