OCD: Next Design Star
Not a whole lot of substance has been going on in Obamaland lately, but this just came across obama_2008 and it made me laugh.
LA Times: Obama has a vision for the Lincoln Bedroom
For starters, get rid of the flat-screen TV
He's not president yet, but Barack Obama has already given some thought to White House decor.
Asked at a town hall-style meeting in Fargo, N.D., about any decorating plans for the Lincoln Bedroom, Obama described a visit to the White House after he became a U.S. senator.
"You have all these mementos of Abraham Lincoln, but you have this flat-screen TV in there," Obama told the crowd at the outdoor event.
"I thought to myself, 'Now, who stays in the Lincoln Bedroom and watches [ESPN's] 'Sports Center'? You've got your clicker. . . . That didn't seem to me to be appropriate. So I might take out the TV, I don't know.
"You should read when you're in the Lincoln Bedroom! Reread the Gettysburg Address. Don't watch TV."
A potential president who has a respect for America's history. Omg.
