A History of Oval Office Style

Even though the first family recently tapped designer Michael Smith (who has worked with Steven Spielberg, Dustin Hoffman, and Michelle Pfeiffer) to redecorate the White House, don't expect immediate changes in President Barack Obama's Oval Office. The new president has been admiring the sunburst rug that former President George W. Bush had installed. "He just loves that rug," an Obama advisor recently told reporters. But each president leaves his mark on the famous round room. Can you guess which president favored orange? And which one had a bearskin rug? Read on for the answers!

President Obama could do us all a favor and not redecorate at tax payers expense. I saw a Tour of the White House on c-span a few weeks ago and Laura Bush did such a fantastic job I wouldnt change a thing!! The 3rd floor which is the family quarters SHOULD BE HOW THE OBAMAS WANT IT because they need to have their own things around them to feel at home. I have watched the White House changed over the years but it has never looked so classy as it does now. Get on with the real business of the day, change the things that need changing, but the White House decor isnt one of them !!

Considering the state of this Country's economy I should hope he would lead by example and make do with what he has. After all, isn't that what he's asking us all to do?? Drop the fecking big buck designer and live like the people he's supposed to be representing.

Why can't the American people run our own country. If we don't like the way things are going, throw them out. We are the ones that pay the money.Sick of us not having any say so.
