... and they'll get to use this lovely china ONCE before they leave the White House... for the lunch they'll be giving for former Australian PM Howard - who is staying in Blair House for one day, when he comes to receive the Medal of Freedom...

(And this is why Barack and family have to stay in a hotel so the girls could start school, instead of in Blair House which has about 137 rooms.)

I wonder if Laura is gunna make her tuna casserole?

I heard Obama say he lived in a hotel for 2 years, this is no biggy. (im of course paraphrasing). Besides its not exactly a Hotel 6

Well I dont give a Rats A$$ if that murderer feels good but - If any of the comedians have any reservations about the comedic value of the Obama's - I have two words for them...Vaughn Meader

OMG, Larry... I have spent years trying to find the digitized version of that album! I finally found a place with free downloading of the audio... can't believe there are others who remember this!

"Larry found"...Terrie "found"...
No,
Regina found.

It was real hard - they had it cleverly hidden on YouTube under Vaughn Meader. Ha ha ha ha ha!

Oh, jeez, Reg... I'm so sorry I didn't look at who posted it... must have had Larry on my mind from an earlier post, I guess. What a stupid mistake. Larry doesn't look anything like RegFaith.

I didn't look for First Family or Vaughn Meader on YouTube. I was looking to buy a copy of it on Amazon, eBay, or anywhere else on the Internet. Never even thought of YouTube.

Thanks for posting it.

For those of you who've been looking for a way to save these files, here's the link to download:

I've got two copies of that album in my record collection! Jim's family had one, and my family had one. We both nabbed them when we moved out!

My dad was a record collector... actually, he collected everything! He had many copies of it, sold them at flea markets. Recently, my sister decided to give me a USB turntable so I could convert albums to digital. Only problem is I have no record albums anymore. When dad died, we sold them all! Completely forgetting to pull out those that we wanted, like First Family.

Thanks to Reg for finding the YouTube version. It was fun to give it a listen again.

We had that album, too! "And the rubber swan is mine!" I was just a kid, but I loved it. I never had a chance to look for it when my parents moved. That's what happens when you move away from home.

One of the more humorously poignant moments during President Obama's Inauguration, besides seeing a very large sign that read "Bush, get da hell out!", was the crowd being picked up by MSNBC's audio as Bush's helicopter lifted off. They were singing:

"Na na na na, Na na na na
Hey hey hey, Goodbye!"

A sentiment shared by more than a few of us!

Good luck Dubya...

I think it was a good thing for Bush today that he is an idiot. He must have felt like dirt to run out of DC with his tail between his legs as it were...

I really admired Barack today for his restraint and graciousness toward the Bush's. He was probably doing his own countdown starting at breakfast...




Just a few more hours!!!!

I was telling my mom the other day, the liberals preach about love & peace & how they don't like hatred & yet they have so much hatred in their hearts towards Bush. How can anyone have such hate in their hearts & profess to be for love & peace? Yeah, you can dislike folks & not agree with them I can understand but to have such hatred in ones heart I can't understand it. My mom agreed with me which is unusual lol even tho she's a conservative too.

Cheryl, I actually feel sorry for GWB in a way, because he is so clueless. I do think he believes he has done the right things. And when you realize that just one of the bad things he has done is to cause the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent people, it's hard to see how he thinks he has been right. You don't have to love everyone in the sense of approving of what they do, no matter how horrible it is.
