Barack’s Mother-in-Law Moving Into White House

Posted by Karl Erikson at 6:15 AM on January 12, 2009

Looks like Barack’s mom-in-law, Marian Robinson, is going to be moving into the White House this month. The First Grandma is going to help Michelle take care of Sasha and Malia Obama as they transition to Presidential life.

Mrs. Robinson, a Chicagoan, just retired from her bank job last summer and has never lived outside her home town. That means a big adjustment for her, just like it’ll be a major adustment for the First Family. Barack often cited his mother-in-law as one of his unsung heroes.

Katie McCormick Lelyveld, Michelle Obama’s spokesperson, said, “Mrs. Robinson will be coming with the family to help the girls get acclimated, and she will determine in the coming months whether or not she wants to stay in D.C. permanently. She didn’t want anyone else taking care of the kids but her. She wanted to be the one there.”

I sure hope Barack gets along with his MIL. If you think it’s hard kicking her out of your regular house, try kicking her out of the White House!
