Obama: 'I'm the Big Elf. I'm Like Will Ferrell'
President, first lady lend a hand to Toys for Tots.
— -- Toting two giant bags of toys, President Obama had a simple holiday message as he arrived to sort gifts at the Marines Corps’ Toys for Tots event today: “Ho, ho, ho.”
“That's a pretty serious ‘Ho ho ho,’” the first lady remarked, before introducing the special “helper” she brought along this year.
“I don't know how good he'll be with sorting. He doesn't usually deal in shopping in any kind of way,” Michelle Obama said of her husband. “But we'll watch him closely to see if he can figure out which ones are zero-to-two or unisex. It gets really complicated, so watch him because he could really make your work harder.”
After thanking the Marine Corps for organizing Toys for Tots, which has given away more than 469 million toys to more than 216 million children since its inception, the president took off his jacket, rolled up his sleeves and got to work sorting toys for little girls and boys.
