WH Sending 1.5 MILLION Xmas Cards?????????
:wtf:

<snip>

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- On Friday, November 28, over 1.5
million Christmas cards bearing a Crawford, Texas, postmark will be mailed to friends and family of President and Mrs. Bush, as well as foreign dignitaries.

This year's official White House Christmas card was designed by artist Barbara Ernst Prey of Oyster Bay, New York, and depicts the Diplomatic Reception Room of the White House.

The design is a watercolor painting of the fireplace and decorated mantle of the Diplomatic Reception Room during the holidays. The Diplomatic Reception Room served as the furnace room of the White House until 1902; it now serves as an entrance to the White House from the South Grounds for family and visiting dignitaries.

President and Mrs. Bush selected a Psalm and a message of peace for the message inside:

"You have granted me life and loving kindness; and your care has preserved my spirit. Job 10:13

"May you celebrate the joys of faith, family and friendship this holiday season and always. 2003"

1. I Saw It Too
Hallmark had the business last year and I haven't bought one since. I have no idea of whom is printing them this year.
