Obama to important to show up at a top journalist society Gridiron Club event

obama_snob.jpgBut hey! He’s having a huge St. Patrick’s Day party at the White House later tonight, and flying out to L.A. to be on Leno tommorow! From the Times UK:

The new president became the first since Grover Cleveland in 1885 to say no in his first year to the Gridiron Club in, an exclusive gathering of editors, columnists, and TV and newspaper executives.

Mr Obama attended in 2006 as a senator and made a speech that brought the house down. Last year President Bush regaled the audience with a ham version of “The Green, Green Grass of Home”.

The White House did not give a reason for Mr Obama’s decision, but it appears that his family holds more appeal.

The event’s date is March 21, the start of the US spring break holiday, which he is due to spend with his wife Michelle and daughters Malia and Sasha at Camp David, the presidential retreat in Maryland a mere 20 minutes away by helicopter.
