Typical White House Press Conference

Seriously? This is the best the MSM can do? I've never seen a bunch of characters obsessing as much over the most trivial information, outside of a Pixar movie.

Nothing Says "Christmas at the White House" Like Chairman Mao

Originally published 12/22/09

What a difference a year makes! There is no accounting for taste, but this may rise to new levels of tastelessness:

2009 Mao ornament

or Obama on Mt. Rushmore:

White House ornament 2008



So, the Bush administration honors Teddy Roosevelt in 2008 with an ornament and the Obama administration honors Chairman Mao, and presumptuously puts Obama's face on Mt. Rushmore...

Merry Christmas, and God bless us each and every one. We're gonna need it!

Update: Did I say "new levels of tastelessness"? I missed the ornament featuring the transvestite! Because nothing really says Christmas like your transvestite ornament!

What Happens When you Google the "N-Word House" on Google Maps

I hear it works with the "er" version of the word as well.

Oh, White House Tannenbaum!

No word yet on whether or not they used the Chairman Mao, transvestite and "Obama on Mt. Rushmore" ornaments this year...
Nothing says "Christmas" like Chairman Mao!
