Obamas Dine at CNN Exec's House

President Obama, Michelle Obama, and Malia Obama are dining at the home of CNN executive Virginia Moseley tonight, according to the White House pool report. Moseley’s husband is Thomas Nides, a former (and probably future) aide to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Via the pool report:

Motorcade is rolling to unknown destination at 6:43 pm. No sight of POTUS as we leave White House. …

We arrive in an unbelievable neighborhood in NW DC with huge houses along Rockwood Parkway at 7 pm. According to WH:

The President, the First Lady and Malia Obama are attending a private dinner at the residence of Thomas Nides and Virginia Moseley.

Moseley, a former ABC News veteran, is vice president and deputy bureau chief in CNN’s Washington office.

UPDATE: The dinner was a long one:

After 3.5 hours at the private dinner, motorcade is rolling at 10:33 pm. No word on what was on the dinner menu. I’ve since learned the affluent neighborhood where we had been holding is called Spring Valley. Across the street and a few houses down from where POTUS was dining was stunning mansion of the ambassador of South Africa.

UPDATE II: According to someone familiar with the dinner, “The dinner was for parents and kids from Sidwell Friends School,” where President Obama sends his kids to school. “Not private dinner for Obamas.”
