“Peoples Energy” — A good name for the soon-to-be-established Government owned monopoly of oil companies.
“Special Assistant to the President?”
Uh-oh, Michelle — better keep a tight leash on yo boy.
Well, she’s a lot better looking than Monica.
Maybe a lot of late night work sessions ‘tween Obambi and Desirée in the future.
i needed more information. not guilty, but admittedly, i know nothing about her.
Socialite. Which for her job description is probably right on key. On the looks side, Not too shabby! Obama's one good choice!
lol i was thinking the same thing...
Since obamanation likes the comparison to Kennedy & Clintoon, will he also follow in their footsteps w/attractive women on staff? Will this one become the next Monica Lewinsky? Only time will tell. You can bet your booties that mainstream media won’t report it.
Are these the rich upper crust black people who are going to help the poor downtrodden black ones? How’s that working out so far?
“Maybe a lot of late night work sessions ‘tween Obambi and Desirée in the future.”
Imagine Michelle going all “Aunt Esther” when she catches Barry trying to quietly sneak back into “da crib” after one of those “sessions.”
“Well, she’s a lot better looking than Monica.”
LOL. So’s Larry Sinclair! At least in “The One’s” eyes.
very funny! True enough.
I knew a girl named Desirée when I was growing up.
Last I heard, she was a stripper.
FWIW,that’s Valerie Jarrett, newly named White House Senior Advisor and Assistant to the President for Intergovernmental Relations and Public Liaison, on Desiree’s left (white dress,black sash).
