Great article. Thanks for sharing. I would say more, but I am slaving today, so I can pay my taxes, so Michelle can live large for a few more months.
Greenfield is one of my favorite columnists.
He hit it out of the park again!

God bless ya Greenfield. Right on the mark.
“On August 4, 1814, during James Madison’s administration (1809-1817), British troops set fire to the structure (during the War of 1812), destroying the interior. Madison brought James Hoban back to supervise it reconstruction, a process that took three years. It was during this phase that the house was painted white and the south portico was added.
Up until now, I have been referring to the president’s home as the “White House,” but throughout its early history it was also referred to as the President’s Palace, the President’s House, and the Executive Mansion. The popular designation “White House” didn’t become official until 1901, when Theodore Roosevelt had the name engraved on his stationery. The White House survived another fire in 1929, this time in the West Wing, while Herbert Hoover was President. Between 1948 and 1952, during Harry S. Truman’s presidency, the interior of the house (with the exception of the third floor) was substantially renovated while the Trumans lived at Blair House, right across the street. This renovation included building new foundations and a steel framework to strengthen the original sandstone walls. As a result, the number of rooms was increased from 62 to 132.”
