Do you expect the President and First Lady to fly on the same plane? The current occupants of 1600 PA Ave seem to take two airplanes even when going to the same place. Mrs. Obama has put quite a hours on the Hobbs of a 757.

While the new 74's can't be ready in time for this Whitehouse couple, do you really think if the Clintons move back in (and hopefully return the furniture they took) that the former president will be slumming in anything less than a fully configured Presidential 747-8?

Ric...the third gives a taxi for FLOTUS, the second the spare. On the other hand, do you really think it will ever be as corrupt and inappropriate as we see with the two current grifters.

In my lifetime I never thought I'd see a chief executive that would make Pres. Carter look acceptable. As to the future, while Bill might have had a problem with a blue dress, his wife will have us pining for the Obama's.

I can't wait to see how fast that vegetable garden is re-sodded and tasty food return to the Whitehouse kitchen.
