WASHINGTON (AP) - On the rockiest day of his young administration, President Barack Obama did what surely made him happy for a while. He left.
With little notice, the president and first lady Michelle Obama bolted the gated compound of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. in their tank of a limousine on Tuesday. They ended up at a Washington public school, greeted by children who could not care less about the collapse of a Cabinet secretary nomination.
"We were just tired of being in the White House," the president candidly told the gleeful second-graders at Capital City Public Charter School.
"We got out! They let us out!" Mrs. Obama said as the kids and their teachers laughed.
The White House said the Obamas' trip had been planned, just not publicly announced.

was a "tough day"?
Oh, I know. I know.
His muslim brothers.
If he REALLY needed some boostering, he should have gone over to the NYT headquarters, also known as the Voice of Obamanation;

He can still pull the wool over the eyes of seven year old kids. Wow, I'm real impressed.
We need a grown up in the White House.
If it were Bush, they would berate him for abandoning his post when the country needed him.
He was even lying to these kids. According to the article, this was a long planned trip to this school.
With his skinny chest? BWAHAHAHA!
I wish they would just keep driving until they reach Africa and stay there.
Was this a public school? He came to visit but if Obama really gave a damn about kids or our country’s future, a priority would have been a plan to overhaul the terrible public school (aka teachers union) system.
That is called Leadership. (extreme sarcasm)
my new daily prayer!
But we’d end up with Bite One Biden.
Look 'chelle, kids. They're just like voters. They'll believe anything.

I want that limo put up on blocks immediately ,, it weighs more than a large box truck and can’t possibly meet EPA standards for mileage or pollution ,, it damn sure hasn’t been certified.
We should replace all the doors with windows while he is gone.
Just wait, Bammy...it's gonna get reeeaaaallly tough when your adoring fans and the press (but I repeat myself) turn against you.
and that’s a really good description of it!
