The latest outrage from the wingnuts is about the ornaments on the WH Christmas tree

[proud2BlibKansan]

Why let a holiday season come between the White House and making some political statements? The White House pegged controversial designer Simon Doonan to oversee the Christmas decorations for the White House. Mr. Doonan, who is creative director of Barney’s New York has often caused a stir with his design choices. Like his naughty yuletide window display of Margaret Thatcher as a dowdy dominatrix and Dan Quayle as a ventriloquist’s dummy. For this year’s White House, he didn’t disappoint.

Seems like Obama must be doing okay since the opposition has nothing else to complain about.

1. Don't they have a nativity scene to go to?

So they can assemble in front of the manger and yell "where's the birth certificate?"

9. Without the birth certificate how do we know Jesus wasn't born in Kenya ??

2. I thought most of the ornaments were collages made by kids all over the country?

I thought that's what I saw on the Operah White House Christmas Special.

4. Oh those pesky little facts

3. 'Tis the season for outrage.

Found in my inbox today (from an ancient aunt in Texas):

White House to not do Christmas this year........

Thought you might be interested in this information from the White House.. This isn't a rumor; this is a fact.

A very talented artist for several years has painted ornaments to be hung on the various White House Christmas trees. The WH sends out an invitation to send an ornament and informs the artists of the theme for the year. She got her letter from the WH recently. It said that they would not be called Christmas trees this year. They will be called Holiday trees. And, to please not send any ornaments painted with a religious theme. She was very upset at this development and sent back a reply telling them that she painted the ornaments for Christmas trees and would not be sending any for display that left Christ out of Christmas.

Just thought you should know what the new residents in the WH plan for the future of America . If you missed his statement that "we do not consider ourselves a Christian Nation" this should confirm that he plans to take us away from our religious foundation as quickly as possible.

Just another step toward turning America away from Christianity!

We should shout to the highest hills that the White House is ours - not the Obama's, and 85% of Americans believe in Christ (Christmas).

17. Projection is not a ridiculous hypothesis: People like that think the entire human race is like

themselves, power hungry. They have little or no personal experience of people who do not manipulate overtly and covertly to acquire power over others, so, naturally, they explain/"understand" President Obama as being the same as they are and, since they seek power, anyone else whom they perceive as seeking power also IS a huge problem.

It's TIME to Evolve.

5. Remember this?

Time flies......

7. I was expecting this to be from the onion.

I actually like those ornaments. Pretty cool. I mean on what other tree would you see Mao and RuPaul in the same place.

10. They always have to whine about something

They're like the little boy who cried "wolf"..I certainly don't pay any attention to them anymore.

[jillan]

11. These were made from kids all over the country - so the rw wackos hate kids now?

[hileeopnyn8d]

13. They only hate

the ones that Obama has been able to indoctrinate.

That Mao one was probably either sent in by a kid with a great sense of humor or one who was dragged to DC for the Fox news 9/12 rally.

[GoCubsGo]

14. They're outraged over Mao with rouge and blue eye shadow???

I made the mistake of clicking on that link, as I was curious as to why a collage of presidents' faces garnered such outrage. Then I read some of the comments. To say that those people are batshit crazy would be the understatement of the decade.

[proud2BlibKansan]

15. Allow me to make an understatement

These people are batshit crazy.

18. That's a Warhol

this is why we need to fund the liberal arts, dammit.
