On Friday's "Good Morning America," anchors and reporters fretted about there being no room in Washington D.C. for Barack Obama. It seems that the President-elect's children start school on January 5 and Blair House, the presidential guest quarters, will not be available until the 15th of that month. News anchor Chris Cuomo worriedly insisted, "I mean, you know, he has got enough on his mind. He is worried about getting his kids situated, which is testament to the Obamas as parents."
Co-host Robin Roberts sympathetically wondered of Obama, "You know, he can't check in early?" An ABC graphic hyperbolically asked, "President-Elect Housing Crisis?" During a tease for the David Wright segment, Roberts labeled the Obamas as like "so many folks" who are "scrambling to find a hotel room."

It’s called extended stay.
Why doesn’t ABC’s Washington bureau set them up? Hey, isn’t Oprah buying a condo, or something, there? She can put him up. They’re both from Chicago. And black.
There are no hotels in DC?
No room at the inn for the Holy Family.
Where does The Fool-Elect stay when he’s in the Senate? He doesn’t have any sort of residence in the area? Does he live in his car?
I would get in touch with his real estate guy Tony R and see if he might want to help with temp housing.

Yeah, those rude, crude, inconsiderate Bushes are at it again.
Nope. They have places to stay. At least two: Obama's Senate apartment and military housing that President Bush offered to them to use. And I've seen some of the flag housing on military bases. Not too shabby. Obama turned this down.
When has he been in the senate? He’s spent most of his time running for office.
Not to worry. I understand they have secured a small manger.
Surely there’s a farm somewhere about where they can bed down.
The marxist messiah shouldn’t be adverse to sleeping in a manger after all.

What evidence do you have that 0 spent time in DC while he was a Senator?
Where did Obama stay when he was a senator?
Obama was in the Senate? I thought he was elected to campaign for President.
I understand that the "Straight Talk Express" might be available. He could look into that.
Surely, they can double cell.
Some Freeper mentioned at one point that apparently Obama’s D.C. housing, whatever it was, burned down.
Kind of mysterious.
Let him find a manger!
