A COCKTAIL PARTY

Adults in the White House!

Tonight, President Obama, and I assume Michelle, hosted a intimate little COCKTAIL PARTY in the Red, Blue and Green Rooms of the Executive Mansion.

From the NYT :

One day after President Obama visited Capitol Hill, he is returning the favor by being host to about two dozen Democrats and Republicans on his turf. The event, scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m., is the first-of-a-kind gathering in the new administration and the latest sign that Mr. Obama is attempting to build relationships with Congress.
The bipartisan affair is set to come shortly after the House considers the president’s economic stimulus bill. The roll call vote could make for some interesting conversation, particularly if the bulk of Republicans oppose the proposal as planned.

Well the bulk of them , ALL OF THEM opposed it! ... some awkward pauses as the pigs- in- a -blanket were being passed! President Obama is SUCH a better person than I am. I so would not lift a pinkey  to ANY GOP needs or wants. I might serve them cocktails though. It is a nice start. A couple of Singapore slings and Speaker Pelosi can at last ask John Boehner what tanning bed he uses there on Capital Hill!
