Blair House: No Vacancy Mr Obama

President-elect Obama and family have to move into the Hayes Adams hotel until the 15th of January since President Bush says Blair House is not available until the (scheduled / required) 15th of January.

This op-ed which is well worth a read and the attached comments are ten times worth being read. I take liberty to quote one here, but there are many.

I gladly join these people in asking the media to find out the who, what, and why of BLAIR HOUSE not being available per Mr Bush for the Obama family. When you consider the importance to his children who start school and have to be in DC.

The bigger story is - who is staying at the Blair House and
why are they more important than the President-Elect and his family? If the
current lame duck prez & his family are STILL important although very much
irrelevant at this time - then why are the Obamas not as important considering
they are MORE relevant than the sitting president?
NYT - do a little digging.
Who is at Blair House? Why are they so important to be there at this time? Other
incoming presidents have moved in earlier in previous years. Obama’s request is
common.
In my opinion, this just comes to show America how much of a mistake
Bush has been even up to the very last minute. The best day will be when we do
not have to have him anywhere near the WH again!

Washington Post Endorses Obama

What great news

That the Washington Post waited till this point in time to make a formal endorsement in my view make it of higher value. They thought out and weighed everything said and done before extending this honor.

My thanks for the Washington Post and; Congratulations to Sen Obama.

Transplants are a Cadillac

I am adding this link to George's review as he is one of my most respected reporters.

The comment I want to make [below] is an observation of mine of tonight's debate and not anything to do with Nightline or George Stephanopoulos' Op-Ed.




Did anyone else notice on Health Care that John McCain spoke of TRANSPLANTS being in the Cadillac category of Health Care. Senator McCain therefore you do not consider a Heart or Kidney transplant to be a norm but a luxury to Americans, if so, shame on you.
Another reason I am glad that I voted (already mailed my ballot) for Sen Obama!!
