President Obama spent time in New Orleans talking with residents about Hurricane Katrina on its tenth anniversary -- the progress in recovery, and the work left to do.

'Was it 'Sanford and Son'?

Sure of his knowledge of '70s sitcoms, President Barack Obama sung out the first few words of that show's theme song in key as he stood Thursday afternoon (Aug. 27) with a few residents on Magic Street, a main drag through what used to be the Lafitte housing complex.

'Well we're movin' on up ...'"
