Have A Holly, Jolly Christmas, Mr. Bush

A local artist, Deborah Lawrence, created a beautiful, swirly, red-and-white collage Christmas ornament for the White House Christmas tree and shipped it off east at Jim McDermott's request. The ornament was then chosen out of many and hung on the presidential Douglas before the Deciders realized it was decorated with text in support of somewhat radical left politics--including, as the P-I notes, positive sentiments towards the impeachment of President Bush. So sneaky! So delightfully devious! Too bad the grownups in charge said it was inappropriate and took it down, even after they initially said it was okay, thereby confirming that they are total killjoys. UPDATE: Now KIRO has an interview with the communist artist in question.
