White House sends out Christmas-themed Hanukkah invitations.»

President and First Lady Bush recently sent Jewish community leaders invitations to a Hanukkah reception at the White House next month. But as the New York Post reports, the invitations “raised more than a few eyebrows” because the image on them was that of a “Clydesdale horse hauling a Christmas fir along the snow-dappled drive to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave”:

One Jewish community leader from Brooklyn quipped, “It’s obvious what’s going on here: The Christmas tree is being taken out of the White House and the menorah is being brought in the back.” The first lady’s spokesperson explained, “It is something that just slipped through the cracks.”

Just shaking my head ... whatever Obama's administration brings, I'll be so grateful when I no longer have to hang my head in shame due to the shennanigans of the Frat Boy and the Xanax Queen.

2. When you hire staff

on the basis of blind loyalty & rw views instead of competence... I'll bet the person responsible went to one of those unaccredited fundie colleges.

Seriously, did they make any good hires or appointments in 8 years?
