Still no request of an office in the West Wing, but it's probably coming...

[ikka]

Why not ask Auntie Zeituni?

[al baby]

and who pays her way ?

[massgopguy]

Hillary took the VP’s office and kicked Algore down the hall.

Poor BHO — President of the United States of America, and he still has to live with his mother-in-law!

[dead]

I’m reminded of the scene in American Gangster when the family moves into their big new white house.

So, Michelle can't handle it all? The liberal, feminist can't hadle it all?

The conservative Sarah could have...

[SoldiersSister]

We do! Grrr!

[Constitutionalist Conservative]

That way, Michelle can leave them for long periods of time without feeling guilty.

[MeanWestTexan]

Makes sense; she’s about as maternal as a spider.

[JimSEA]

Actually, I like the sound of this (so shoot me).

[hflynn]

So much for mommy care in the WH.

[Red in Blue PA]

LOL.....this only confirms who wears the pants.

LOL!

Sarah’s husband helped a lot, and from what I understand they also had lots of family that have helped them. Obama won’t be able to his kids like Todd Palin could have. Obama will be president.

I have enough problems with Obama, but this isn’t one of them.

Any of you presidential historians know if this would be the first POTUSMIL to live in the White House? Just thinking of the MIL joke possibilities...

[teletech]

The real reason is that Michelle thinks her mother will be safer in the Whitehouse when Obama gets the USA attacked by terrorists.

So, Michelle can't handle it all? The liberal, feminist can't hadle it all?

It's an Obama family tradition. The grandmother raises the kids, while the actual mother realises her personhood.

However, I expect it may change when Malia and Sasha start having kids

[jennyjenny]

Eh, what’s one more family member living off the taxpayer?

I get tired of the press covering every single piece of minutia about their lives. But you hardly ever heard about things Laura and President Bush did while in office, unless it was negative.
