WASHINGTON (AP) — While senators worked into the night on an economic stimulus plan, President Barack Obama could sit back and relax — if only for a couple of hours — to observe a popular dance theater group at the Kennedy Center. Though it was announced earlier in the day the president would attend, the Obamas picked the right moment to reward themselves with the show. They left around a flurry of news that lawmakers had reached a deal on a stimulus measure at the heart of the president's plan for reviving the economy. The Obamas were accompanied by Attorney General Eric Holder and his wife, Sharon Malone, and Washington Mayor Adrian Fenty and his wife, Michelle. Soon after the Obamas arrived, the red curtains went up and the Obamas stayed for around two hours to watch the show. The New York-based modern dance company performed along to a blend of jazz, blues and the violin.

I believe he worked last weekend so one night I guess is ok to take off. Hopefully he is working more than 40 hours a week like most Americans.
He makes me ill.
Personally I could care less what he does as he has no intention of doing the job as President. Why should he work as he has never worked at a job in his life? At least you didnt include pictures. :)
Something in the Whitehouse seems to be haunting Obama. He knows he doesn’t belong there.
The rest of the country enjoyed his night off. Just knowing he was off the clock made me sleep better.
Does the first family have any white friends?
The only white guy Barry hangs with is Joe Biden?
“The Obamas were accompanied by Attorney General Eric Holder and his wife, Sharon Malone”
Huh? Wife or friend?
Me too. Hell, I'd gladly help pay for him to take the rest of the year off for that matter (and the Stalinist Congress as well).
"Bush's Party While Economy in Shambles"
The media stinks more than limberger cheese.
Never do I see a President or leader.
I only see a small boy in a mans suit, destroying, everything we are.
Yes, the media’s “american idol” has been elected President and they will praise him, adore him, cover for him, and lie for him.
They are disgraceful.
AFRICAN AMERICAN UBER ALLES.
I was just wondering that. No white friends? Are they racist? Not a good example for their children.
Anyone want to over-under on the date upon which we get the first breathless “President Obama picked his nose last night” story?
Fiddling, Rome burning. My only consolation is that now, everything is HIS fault.
lol.
Maybe I am over reacting, but I don't remember any other POTUS have a POTUS seal on their theater booth.
I guess the Obama team is afraid the American public will forget who "Dear Leader" is
