According to a White House press release that went out prior to the Easter Egg Roll this morning:
Many of the activities at this year’s event will be webcast live on the White House website…This is the first time the activities at the White House Easter Egg Roll have been broadcast online.
If you ignore the eight years Bush spent in the White House, that claim would actually be true. Unfortunately for the Obama press team, a quick Google search would’ve yielded this.
But that’s not the most interesting news to come out of this morning’s big roll. According to a tipster on the ground, Fergie serenaded the kids on the South Lawn with an unedited version of "Fergalicious"- including these lyrics:
Delicious (so delicious)
But I ain’t promiscuous
And if you was suspicious
All that sh*t is fictitious
I blow kisses (mmmwwahhh)
That puts them boys on rock, rock
And they be lining down the block just to watch what I got (got, got, got)
Nothing says "lord and savior" like cursing in front of nine year-olds. Apparently Fergie cleaned it up during her second performance.
The good news: Ziggy Marley appropriately performed "You can fool some people some time…"
