Barack Obama Chooses Sidwell Friends School for His Daughters

I think it's great that the Obama's chose such a fine school for their daughters. I believe that some of Biden's granddaughters go there too. Knowing that the school has already dealt with Secret Service in the past and the security issues involved with high profile students, makes this school seem like a very reasonable choice for the Obama girls.

That would be a long commute for a child, unless you plan on moving back to DC.

P.S. You both left out Percy!

I'm just wondering why they keep giving out such persoanl information about the Obama's. They've not only given the name of the school the girls will attend but also their secret code names with the secret service. Why do we need to know this? Are you trying to give this information for someone to hurt them?

What, not public schools? Guess the Obama's just made the case for school vouchers.

President Elect Obama's daughter need to go to a private school with lots of security. If it was me I would home school my children because of a the whack jobs out there already making nasty comments.

Right on the button miss. Why should any presidents children have to go to any school? With the brains of America under one roof surely they could teach the kids how to attack countries that have nothing to do with any acts of vengance on the U.S. Mabey Geo.W.could read the little pony to them.

I'm so glad the Obama's chose a good school for the girls. It sends a great message to the inner-city youth around the country!

With the 494 point “bear market rally” on Friday, the Dow Jones Industrial average has only lost 3000 points since Barack Obama led the polls to become the next US President.

Investors around the world are voting with their wallets, and they don’t like what they see! There’s a bit of poetic justice knowing our President-elect, as a lawyer for ACORN, put the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac meltdown ball in motion.

Spin it any way you see fit, but, if you enjoyed your 3rd Quarter 2008 investment or retirement plan statement, you’re just going to love your FY 2008 report, in January!

Obama will need to rethink his “tax cut for 95% of working families” campaign promise. You see, people who aren’t working don’t pay earned income tax, and those with huge portfolio losses won’t be paying capital gains taxes, either! Oh, and boomers, you better adjust that retirement date, as well!

Get ready, this is going to get interesting!

Since many of you have said that Obama attending a Muslim school for a short time makes him a radical muslim, are his children now peace loving Quakers? Just asking.

I wonda how many Negro Chilren go to dat school!

I dought Obama wuz my homie! I dought him and Chelle be down wit da struggle! Damn, dey be uncka tom house niggaz!

Rip his nuts off, Jesse! You see what I'm sayin?

As President you would think they would hire Private Teachers to come to the White House in order to protect his children.

I CAN REMEMBER DURING THE CAMPAIGN MICHELLE SAYING THAT SHE IS JUST LIKE "ONE OF US." NOW SHE IS SENDING HER KIDS TO A PRIVATE SCHOOL. WITH THE DC SCHOOLS IN A MESS, ONE WOULD THINK THAT IF THEY SENT THEIR KIDS TO A PUBLIC SCHOOL (WITH ALL THE SECRET SERVICE) THE SCHOOL WOULD BE TRANSFORMED IN A DAY. YOU KNOW--CHANGE ONE SCHOOL AT A TIME. MICHELLE COULD EVEN GO IN AND HELP WITH THE SCHOOL SYSTEM. OBAMA DID MENTION EVERYTHING HE IS GOING TO DO TO HELP THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM. I GUESS THE PEOPLE IN DC HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO CONTINUE TO SEND THEIR KIDS TO DC SCHOOLS. WHAT'S GOOD FOR THE DC KIDS SHOULD BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR THE OBAMA KIDS. PUT ACTIONS INTO YOUR WORDS, OBAMA, AND CLEAN UP THE DC SCHOOLS. WITH ALL THE SECRET SERVICE ACCOMPANYING YOUR DAUGHTERS, ONE SCHOOL COULD ACTUALLY BENEFIT FROM A TURN AROUND.
