George & Laura Bush: They Actually Made Christmas & Hanukkah One Holiday!

The Christmas/Hanukkah Invite!

The Christmas/Hanukkah Invite!

Don’t worry George & Laura Bush! You’ve got less than 60 days to embarrass yourselves again. Because this oversight with the Christmas/Hanukkah invititationsĀ is pretty darnĀ strange! Here’s an excerpt from New York Post about these peculiar invites:

“In the background, the White House windows are festooned with Christmas wreaths.

The incongruity of the message did not go unnoticed.

It’s absolutely bizarre to receive an invite to the White House for Hanukkah in a Christmas format,” said one person who was invited. “They should have consulted with their chief of protocol before sending this out. This belongs right in the ‘Weird But True’ column.”

Jewish community leader Isaac Abraham of Brooklyn had a simpler explanation.

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,” he quipped.” (End of Excerpt) Read the whole article here:(http://www.nypost.com/seven/11262008/news/politics/let_santa_light_the_menorah_140965.htm
