WASHINGTON (CBS) – President Barack Obama is holding a party at the White House Wednesday night to watch the Bulls take on the Charlotte Bobcats, according to a published report.

The party will come after a day of serious business, according to UPI.

The guests will include a bipartisan group of members of Congress from Chicago and Charlotte, N.C., according to UPI. The report did not specify who would be there.

The Bulls will take on the Bobcats at 6 p.m. Chicago time at the Time Warner Cable Arena in charlotte. The Bulls (44-18) are hoping for an eleventh win in 13 games overall, and to avoid a third loss in four games against the Bobcats (26-37) this season, CBS Sports reported.

Leading Bobcats scorer Stephen Jackson and key reserve Tyrus Thomas are expected to play in the game despite recent injuries.

    Lol I bet thats a room full of dummies. Anyone who could sit in a room with President Moron has to be brain dead just to get pass the stupid in the air.It really sucks he is from Chicago, hates America, is clueless, and some how got to be president.

  • Alphaman

    The President needs a break every now and then. Moron he’s probably the best politician we had in the White House. Now Bush was the moron know wonder why people threw shoes at him.

  • Fan

    Is he going to fake being a Bulls fan like he is a fake White sox fan who didn’t even recognize Frank Thomas?

  • Bruce Weber

    who cares?!

  • bigtime sucker

    fan,
    the guy has played basketball with d rose and noah so there is some credibility there
    my question is why the bobcats? i mean come on. why waste your time watching the mighty boo take on the now gerald wallace-less bobcats in a half empty arena, those games are hard to watch on tv.
    he would have been better served to host an event for saturday for the anniversary halftime show and whatnot.
