Jim McDermott “Impeach Bush” Christmas Tree Ornament
This morning’s paper featured this photograph of a one-of-a-kind Christmas tree ornament designed for the White House Christmas tree:
Unfortunately the ornament was the only one out of 370 specially commissioned ornaments that was rejected by the White House Christmas tree decorator.
From the article:
A spokeswoman for first lady Laura Bush said Tuesday that the White House tree will not include an ornament by a Seattle artist that supports President Bush’s impeachment.
Artist Deborah Lawrence said she wanted to salute Democratic Rep. Jim McDermott, of Seattle, a longtime Bush foe who backs impeachment.
The nine-inch ball Lawrence created is covered with swirly red-and-white stripes and features a picture of McDermott. Tiny glued-on text hails the impeachment resolution.
…
Instructions to the artists were clear: to decorate the ornaments in a patriotic, red, white and blue theme, McDonough said.
What could be more patriotic than an ornament featuring the constitutionally correct Congressman Jim McDermott who supports the impeachment of President Bush – a man who has shown total disregard for the U.S. Constitution and all international agreements banning secret renditions and torture?
Deborah Lawrence should put the ornament into mass production. I’d buy one for my tree!
