This is a very snarky AP piece about the where the Obama's are staying while they wait to be able to occupy Blair House and then the White House. The article mentions that the house the Obama's vacationed in is worth 9 million dollars. Hmmm... every other mean article has described it as an 8 million dollar home. The AP piece then goes on the describe how luxe the Hay Adams is, even mentioning in a slightly condescending tone that hypoallergenic bedding is available, because "Malia has allergies." But nowhere does it raise any kind of issue or criticism of the fact that the Bushies have leased out Blair House. And how do they expect the O's to vacation with the security concerns, not to mention the number of secret service agents needed. What kind of hotel do they expect them to stay in? The O's are not trying to take over the White House early, they being responsible parents, want to have their children start school at the beginning of the semester. But being a responsible parent sure isn't George's way. I seem to remember some golf/cruise taken when Jenna was having her appendix out.
