I don't know if you're joking Boban but when I lived in Virginia, back in the 80's, I went to the White House at Christmas to see all the beautifully decorated Christmas trees.

Yes, I imagine being from Serbia it's a hard concept, but it's true!
The White House is indeed open to the general public for guided tours. It's not like you can roam around freely anywhere, but there are many rooms with historically significant art and artifacts.

I, for one, love my country and our form of Government. The shenanigans going on right now are a travesty to all Americans.

A first term Tea Party Republican foistering this crap upon us all is despicable, but it's possible because we have this form of Representative Government.

I also love most of the concepts of The Affordable Care Act: it was passed by Congress; upheld by the Supreme Court; and 44 attempts by those opposed to try and overturn or de-fund it have failed!
frustrated

So why can't they get on with dealing with the Nations problems and stop trying to re-write this past election! Jeesh, enough already! very mad

Perhaps, they are fumigating it to avoid some pests.

.... there were tours there all the time....after today you have to find a group of veterans upset at the closing of their monuments to break a window or two, break in and give you a guided tour...

they might actually do a good job. sorry couldn't get the news link included.sad flower

saw a poster of a group of baboons and the caption read:

a group of crows are called a murder and a group of baboons is called a congress.

that sure explains a lot. laugh

shame on us Americans - we voted for this group - we got exactly what we voted for.
