It was reported earlier that President Obama would miss the Kennedy Center event, but that’s changed:
Following the Presidential Address tonight @POTUS WILL ATTEND the Kennedy Center honors event. A change from a prior decision

Phew. Wouldn’t want the War on Terror to disrupt the president’s social calendar…
