President Obama ditching frigid DC to head to sunny Palm Springs after inauguration while moving vans are spotted outside his new $4.3m home

President Obama will fly to Palm Springs on Friday with his wife Michelle and daughters Sasha and Malia

There is a good chance that the Obamas could be staying at the home of Michael Smith and James Costos, where they have stayed in the past

Once the vacation is over, the Obamas will return to the 8,200-square-foot-home they have leased in DC for the next two years

On Monday afternoon, moving vans were spotted outside the Obama's new home in the district's Kalorama neighborhood

The Obamas will be staying in DC until Sasha finished high school in 2019

Vice President Biden and his wife Jill meanwhile will depart DC on Friday for Delaware on Amtrak

“”Any tornadoes or a tsunami or two?””

NO - but if they’re going to be at the place they are supposedly buying on the mountain side in the desert - a 6.0+ earthquake could do the job nicely! Not that I’d be nasty enough to wish for anything like that!!!

What is the monthly cost on that? He will seldom be there.

Are you kidding me? Obama has been on vacation his whole life. He JUST got back from yet another taxpayer funded vacation in Hawaii!

The marxist grifter spent eight years playing president, and never did a single day of honest work. Piss off, Zero!

That's much more Obama's style, than that hideous pile of bricks in Kalorama, DC.

People say they get into politics to do good. Obama has done very well.

Looks like Obama is burning through his money. He’ll soon find out this isn’t the federal budget.

You really think that gorgeous modern home is well suited for a leftist schmuck like Obama? That it would be in his taste? Or were you being sarc?

I think a hut like his brother's in Africa would be better suited/more appropriate for him.

Barack Obama's 'lost' brother found in Kenya


George Hussein Onyango Obama,
Senator Barack Obama's long lost
brother was tracked down living in
a hut on the outskirts of Nairobi

Senator Barack Obama's long lost brother has been tracked down for the first time living in a shanty town in Kenya, reports claimed

Mr Obama, 26, the youngest of the presidential candidate's half-brothers, spoke for the first time about his life, which could not be more different than that of the Democratic contender.

"No-one knows who I am", he told the magazine, before claiming: "I live here on less than a dollar a month."

No, I wasn't being sarcastic at all. Obama is all about the glam, which is what that Palm Springs house is.

Remember - the guy is the biggest narcissist walking, and has been living like a king for the last eight years. He spent most of that time partying with some of the richest, most famous people on earth, and is now a bigger celebrity than any of them.

He's gonna live the lifestyle of the rich and famous from now on, and you can bet he'll require every trapping, including the 'fabulous' show house.

Amtrak better make sure the bar car is fully stocked.

Well, HE might like a beautiful modern home like that, but it hardly suits him. Trash like him fits more appropriately in an inner-city ghetto slum tenement.

IIRC, Biden has lives in Delaware and commutes to DC via Amtrak more than he stays at the DC VP house.

“Looks like Obama is burning through his money. He’ll soon find out this isn’t the federal budget.”

Recall the 2009 Trillions of dollars stimulus package that was so haphazardly dispersed? He’s got a slice of that stashed somewhere.

By "suits", I meant, that which pleases him, not, that which he deserves.

Slightly different usage of the word.

OK, but still, he doesn't seem to me to be the sort of guy that would have good taste in anything, which is why I was surprised by that choice of house. Then again, knowing how he does things, he may have had others pick out the house for him, and he really couldn't care less one way or the other, or have the sophistication or creative intelligence to even recognize something really nice. Remember, the guy's a screwed-up in the head hard leftist. His type do not tend to think very well. Most hard lefties are slobs in the way they dress and carry themselves.

Sidwell Friends is closed for the inauguration on Friday; Sushi can fly out & back in time for Monday school. Yes, another taxpayer funded 3-week Hawaii vacation, but Oboomba is worn out from preening for the cameras and screwing over POTUS-elect Trump.

My elderly neighbor's cleaning lady does more good scrubbing toilets than most "public servants" do in their entire careers.
