President Bush and First Lady Laura Bush welcomed Pres.-elect Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama, to the White House today for the ceremonial first meeting of the nation's leader and his successor.

The Washington Post reports that the two men met privately -- without handlers -- in the Oval Office, while the first lady provided Michelle Obama with a tour of the private residence. The paper also notes that that M. Obama "will also spend time today scouting schools" for daughters, Malia and Sasha.
