Actually, historians will tell you that several Presidential mothers-in-law have lived in the White House, including President Wilson's.

The president has to pay for his own personal expenses such as clothes, dry cleaning and any meals he and his family eat in their private quarters. Meals connected to his official duties are covered by taxpayers. For instance, if donuts are served at a meeting, taxpayers foot the bill. If the president wants donuts for breakfast, he pays for it.

if they eat in their private quaters ... does that mean that on a day to day basis they DO eat there?

I don't think the 'double standard' was about money -- it was why is one a 'bad' mother and one 'not' when both will be in positions to spend a lot of time away from their young kids.

Actually, the only people I heard who criticized Palin for running for VP with small children were from the Christian right.

Why do you think it should not be allowed?

I don't care for Palin, but wouldn't attack her for not taking care of her children.

"I believe it will be the first time someone other than the nuclear family will be moving into the White House along with the President."
