I thought maybe he wanted to watch marlakay Feb 2021 #23

Oh yes of course. I wondered why he left this weekend. Irish_Dem Feb 2021 #25

I remember Obama having superbowl marlakay Feb 2021 #28

Right, Joe is gregarious, and would love to have parties in the WH. Irish_Dem Feb 2021 #29

"Jill can whip up. . ." A bit sexist, is it not? niyad Feb 2021 #33

I think for security reasons, it's better than a long drive where he would be too exposed. SharonAnn Feb 2021 #48
