Veterans of the Bush White House are shocked.

I would like to take a moment please to FANGIRL OUR PRESIDENT.



It's like the West Wing is coming to life! Rahm's little smirk! Obama explaining with his hands! SIGH, YOU GUYS. SIGH.

But even better is the article it comes with: Obama Settles Into a More Informal White House
In the West Wing, Obama is a bit of a wanderer. When Bush wanted to see a member of his staff, the aide was summoned to the Oval Office. But Obama tends to roam the halls; one day last week, he turned up in the office of his press secretary, Robert Gibbs, who was in the unfortunate position of having his feet up on the desk when the boss walked in.

"Wow, Gibbs," the press secretary recalls the president saying. "Just got here and you already have your feet up." Gibbs scrambled to stand up, surprising Obama, who is not yet accustomed to having people rise when he enters a room.

I'm just thinking about Bartlet hanging out in Sam's office, playing chess, and the hearts in my eyes are kind of enormous.

*CHINHANDS*

obama, politics
