Here's some satire that is perilously close to the truth. It's pretty much a commentary on how disrespectfully and outrageously the Republican have treated President Obama.

Republicans Demand Obama Vacate White House to Prep it for New President

WASHINGTON (The Nil Admirari) - Earlier today, a number of Republicans demanded President Obama, his family, and his staff vacate the White House so the residence could be prepared for the next president. Republicans asserted the whole interior of the White House needed to be repainted,among other things, and such tasks would be much easier if the Obamas were no longer living there.

"President Obama not only needs to leave the White House as soon as possible, but he must also stop using Air Force One. Both need to be made ready for me," declared Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump, who told Obama to "read the Constitution."

The White House has turned down a request from the family of President-elect Barack Obama to move into Blair House in early January so that his daughters can start school on Jan. 5.

The Obamas were told that Blair House, where incoming presidents usually stay in the five days before Inauguration Day, is booked in early January, a spokesperson to the Obama transition said. “We explored the idea so that the girls could start school on schedule,’ the spokesperson said. “But, there were previously scheduled events and guests that couldn’t be displaced.” . . .

“It’s not a public schedule,” said Sally McDonough, spokeswoman for First Lady Laura Bush, in refusing to disclose who was staying at Blair House. “It’s not a question of outranking the Obamas. Blair House will be available to them on January 15.” . . .

A State Department official said he didn’t know of any foreign dignitaries staying at Blair House in early January. A White House official said that Mr. Bush does not have family or friends from Texas staying at Blair House during the period which the Obamas requested. But Blair House, the official said, has been booked for “receptions and gatherings” by members of the outgoing Bush administration.

3. I had never heard about this.

It started right away, I see.

4. Will they change the address if Trump wins?

After all, you wouldn't want a white president to have the same address as a black president. Maybe they can make it 1400 Pennsylvania Avenue!

6. She flashed in and out of view so quickly I wondered

if Trump saw that she was not helping him. Or maybe it was that she got all the attention!!
