Another says job-seekers have offered him tickets to Redskins football games, which he has turned down. And yet another has given his mother in Chicago "talking points" to deal with people trying to get to him by going through her.

Maybe I should add mine to the pile. I could be a real asset with respect to healthcare reform, I'm sure.

I know my husband has sent in a few for a director's position. Can you imagine saying that you work for President Obama?

It isn't funnnnnny.... This is what happened when you are a secular hedonist who enjoy good cocktails and beer like me. You get pwned by life. Anyhoo, I am extremely jealous of those who will get to work with O.

Just a little warning to the females who will get to work in the White House, keep your hands off my husband-to-be Joh Favreau(Obama's speechwriter)! I mean it!

We will all be able to "serve" in our communities in various ways. I hope those who worked on the Obama campaign will come up with ideas to stay "united" and "serve". Got any ideas? Post them, please.
