Just how checked out are President and Mrs. Bush? The New York Post reports that they sent out invitations to Jewish leaders for a Hanukkah reception at the White House with a big Christmas tree pictured on the front.
The message reads that the couple “requests the pleasure of your company at a Hanukkah reception,” written beneath an image of a Clydesdale horse hauling a Christmas fir along the snow-dappled drive to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
Nice. For her part, the First Lady’s spokesperson apologized on Laura Bush’s behalf, more or less blaming the mixup on the fact that neither she nor her husband really give a crap about anything anymore.
