Obama Girls Getting Tour Of Their New Rooms At The White House

After trips to two D.C. private schools, Malia and Sasha Obama are getting a special personal tour of the White House this afternoon, accompanied by grandma Marian Robinson and their mother.

"Mrs. Obama greatly appreciated this invitation to provide an opportunity for the girls to feel at home and be comfortable in this transition process," Katie McCormick Lelyveld, Michelle Obama's spokeswoman, told our colleague Richard Leiby in an e-mail. Laura Bush was in Kentucky this morning for an event at the Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historic Site and was expected back this afternoon.

The Bush twins rooms? I can only imagine...

Beer cans stacked on the window sills. Dirty clothes strewn about the room. Bunk beds. Awesome posters adorning the walls. Stereo blasting 24/7. Bossing around the staff, making ridiculous demands. Disrespecting Shrub and Stepford.

The White House staff is in for a welcome and deserved treat come 1-20-09!

It must be awesome for them to know that they're going to be living in the White House and that their father is going to be President of the United States very soon.
