It was a little-known fact about the White House that the place has great closet space.
Until departing First Lady Laura Bush let the secret out of the closet in a meeting with incoming First Lady-to-be Michelle Obama.
According to Bush, whose taped interview with Cynthia McFadden appeared on ABC News' Nightline, there were no personal problems and no weighty issues of state discussed when Obama visited the White House recently with daughters, Malia and Sasha, as friend Andrew Malcolm, keeper of all-things Good Housekeeping at the Ticket, notes.
The two mothers -- Bush has twin daughters, one married now -- talked about "what any women would talk about as one is moving out of a home and one is moving in."
Bush told Obama the White House has great closets.
The windows aren't bad either. And somebody else does them.

It's rough living the high life... as if she does not have large closets in her Chicago mansion. Please... Obama's have always lived large.
