Here is video of Oprah Winfrey's Christmas Special from the White House with President Obama and First Lady Michelle. The special shows a lot of the White House and some historical things about previous Presidents, as well as talking with the Obamas . . . (VIDEO)

What a beautiful, loving couple, inside and out (not):
THE White House couple provided more than a hint of their competitive home life when Oprah Winfrey asked Barack Obama about the pressure as US President to give good presents.
Michelle Obama jumped in. “What are you going to get me? You should feel pressure . . .”
Mr Obama shot back: “I have given some good gifts - you get some nice stuff. Here’s the general rule: I give nicer stuff than I get.”
“No way,” declared the first lady. “I gave you good gifts last year.”
“Absolutely! Aw, come on, please,” Mr Obama said, citing the disparity in the Obama household between Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. He pointed to a pearl necklace he had given his wife as a wedding anniversary present. Smiling, he said: “Who gave you this?”
“We’re talking about Christmas,” Mrs Obama said. “Don’t become distracted.”
As the banter continued, the President showed he liked having the last word: “But that principle generally applies.”
You watch it. I have to puke.
Ah...a reality show...
And they don't give Birthday or Christams kids because they want to teach them what??
You kinda get that feeling that if he had to share with a sibbling, he cheated to make sure he got the bigger half.
Remember that old interview with the girls....same petty attitude. I think Michelle said he was a slob...left his stuff all over..
Pure, unadulterated free propaganda while 0prah fawns over the first couple. You couldn’t pay me to watch this drivel. No wonder 0prah is quitting her show before Barry’s first term is up. Her popularity will circle the bowl like Barry’s with this sucking up.
Of course this has nothing to do with his sagging polls.
The OBamas are no more qualified for the white house than my oldest son, who just finished college, majoring in political science.

Did they figure out how to get Obama up onto the Cross?
While clicking through channels, I caught the part where Oprah asked about the letter that the Bush twins left for the Obama kids about what a magical place the White House is to grow up in. Barack said, the kids do sleep overs (great, the Secret Service loves that) and they like the dog. Other than that, no big. At least he didn’t call the Bush girls drunks. In fact, he didn’t even acknowledge the Bush twins letter at all.
In the eight years that George and Laura Bush were in the White House I don’t ever recall seeing any Christmas specials feature them. Nor do I recall even seeing a single cookie recipe in any of the ladies magazines.
Those pearls are Pelosi grade baubles.
About 13K?
Yeah...call attention to those. How many mortgaged homes are being lost back to the banks because of $1300 in behind payments.
These people have no clue.
This required a BARF ALERT
On HGTV, I remember seeing Laura Bush (mostly as a voice over!!!) taking a camera tour of the rooms!!! OUR rooms!!! Showing the lovely decorations, speaking glowingly of the hundreds of volunteers who put it all together...
Honest, I want to cry.
Are we being paid to watch this? If so, how much?
"This year's 56-inch-by-29-inch re-creation of the White House weighed in with 140 pounds of gingerbread coated with 250 pounds of white chocolate."
sw
Thanks. I obviously missed that one.
I just watched a show with Pres Bush and the First Lady giving a tour of the White House. It also was a history lesson on the evolution of the White House from when it was first constructed till today (Bush in office). Very interesting and informative. And they were so gracious and humble to be the first family for 8 years.
Boy, I miss them so much!!!!!sigh........
what about Kwanza??? you know that ancient and hallowed African celebration that goes back........... all the way to the 60’s...
