The tween girls of the Washington area have transcended differences of race, class and wealth to reach a single, resounding conclusion: They really, really, really, really want to be friends with Malia and Sasha Obama.
They lap up every shred of information about the first daughters, dream about meeting them and strategize ways to make it happen. Minivan rides and dinner table conversations are dominated by questions about the girls: What's their favorite food? What kind of dog did they get? Where can I get a coat like Malia's?
"Sometimes I go up to my room and I just think, 'I want to meet them, I want to meet them, I want to meet them,' " says a desperate Sophie Metee, a fourth-grader at Wood Acres Elementary in Bethesda.
Her mom, Kathy Lindert, just sighs: "Oh, Sophie."
Lindert has entertained hours of speculation on everything "Obama girls" -- what their bedrooms look like, if they like Ledo Pizza and whether they put whoopee cushions on the seats of visiting dignitaries. And this week there was the arrival of the Obamas' Portuguese water dog, Bo.
"All day long we've been looking at pictures of the dog," Lindert said Wednesday, the day after Bo was introduced to the world at the White House.
In poster-strewn bedrooms around the Beltway, other daughters have been doing the same thing. It struck Lindert as strange at first, but she knows her daughter's fixation isn't much different from that of adults across the region who earnestly hope that Barack and Michelle Obama will somehow land at their church or neighborhood dinner party.
Maya Catoe, a sixth-grader from Temple Hills, imagines a friendship blooming through the Girl Scouts.

Oh, barf.
I think I just saw my breakfast again.
Please American, Do not focus on the Man behind the Curtain....do not Look for Substance.....gaze upon the children in front of the Curtain, and Rejoice in “Pop Culture” while the Harvard Grad behind the Curtain pushes YOUR buttons.
Pravda couldn’t write such syrupy propoganda better.
They seem very similar.
Hopefully they won’t be punished with a baby.
The kids are cute, and they seem sweet. It’s a shame their dad’s policies are a disaster.
Innocent children. They should detail the parents more IMO. We will know more about the children in one year’s time than we currently know about the president’s entire life.
Why?
LOL
Obama’s shoe laces are going to be all the rage. Politics? What’s that?
Yup.
Their new dog is a poodle named Rahm.
Wow! Two black kids living in public housing in D.C.!
Astounding!

The reporterette shows her Leftist RACISM by assuming that tween girls of the Washington area must all be white racist bigots, even though DC is mostly Black and wealthy and well-connected. There are generations of Blacks in DC who have been very wealthy and connected.
Just “barf”? How about projectile, chunk-spewing, ultra-acidic, head in the toilet barf.
Wonder what would happen if a white comedian told them to “make a sex tape.” And called the “black bitches.”

whether they put whoopee cushions on the seats of visiting dignitaries
bullsh!t
