I heard that Urkel was the inspiration for their whole season in ‘72.
It sounds just as possible as getting the Nobel Peace prize for doing absolutely nothing.

***which made up for the time the team did not get the chance to go to the White House because, in part, President Richard Nixon was embroiled in the Watergate scandal.***

Good on these three guys.
I just hope all their taxes are in order when Obama sics the IRS on them.

2013-1972= 41 years
If the WH actually wanted to do this, they would have done it last year on the 40 anniversary.

So 0bama is the reason for the season. As always. Not any of the people being honored.
He probably think he's joking but he's not.
Kudos to the brave souls who refrained to participate in this spectacle.
