Such a wonderful day in Washington last week as First Lady Michelle Obama planted her new kitchen garden out on the South Lawn of The White House with kitchen staff standing along side.
The weather was so nice in fact, that, after President Obama received his economic briefing and met with Defense Secretary Robert Gates in the Oval Office, the POTUS and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton decided to hold their 4:15 meeting out behind the White House—next to the swing set installed for the Obama girls in March.Striding out from the West Wing, the two seemed thick as thieves—smiling, Secretary Clinton casually swung her leg over the bench on the east side of the playground, and the president grinned and waved to gawking reporters and staff as he sat down across from her.
These two have come quite a long way from the primary fist-fight that erupted over 18 months of criss-crossing the nation for support for their separate presidential hopes. Prayer for their union and efforts seem to have fostered a wonderful professional friendship.
We want to encourage you to continue to lift up our Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton as she continues to speak for the President around the world and travels to many of the dark places for peace.
This is the first meeting of the two former rivals since Obama returned from Turkey and Iraq
