First Couple to Hit Broadway This Weekend
New York Times - Caucus ^ | 5/29/2009 | Patrick Healy

For all of the people sprawled out on those lawn chairs along shuttered Broadway in Times Square, take note: A certain famous family plans to be awfully close by on Saturday evening.

President Obama and his wife, Michelle, plan to visit New York City on Saturday and take in a Broadway show, the August Wilson play “Joe Turner’s Come and Gone” at the Belasco Theater on West 44th Street, according to three theater executives who have been informed of the First Family’s plans.

I notice 0 likes to do everything but work, and his band of idiot advisers are entirely worthless. Kinda like Nero signing while Rome was burning.

I personally blame all the moderates and ‘conservatives’ that voted for this clown.

Obama, Obama, Obama....

It’s making me SICK.

a) I wish they’d stay the hell away from here; b) I suppose it’s good for NY ‘cause Emperor Michael I is surely schmoozing the Big 0 for porkulus.

Springtme for Barack!!!

Ok, if this was Bush...in Hollywood, then Broadway...it would be an outrage.

He doesn’t govern. He campaigns.
