Tonight at 11:12 pm, president Bush called Sen. Obama. Here are some quotes from the call for your use and reporting:
“Mr. President-elect, congratulations to you. What an awesome night for you, your family and your supporters. Laura and I called to congratulate you and your good bride.”
“I promise to make this a smooth transition. You are about to go on one of the great journeys of life. Congratulations and go enjoy yourself.”
The President extended an invitation for the President-elect and his family to visit the White House soon, at their convenience. Source
Obama is the first biracial president of the United States (that we know of) and now Peggy doesn’t have to worry about getting her gas bills and her mortgage paid!
