Holiday Spirit?
(Fox News) - A controversial Christmas ornament that praised efforts to impeach President Bush — will not hang at the White House after all.
The Washington Post Online reports Seattle-based artist Deborah Lawrence created the decoration as part of a program using local artists from several congressional districts.
In tiny glued-on text, Lawrence salutes the impeachment efforts of her congressman, Democrat Jim McDermott. It was originally reported that the ornament would be placed on one of the White House trees and that Lawrence was invited to a White House reception to which she responded, "apparently, they didn't read it — or Laura Bush is more progressive than I believed."
Lawrence did get to attend the party — but the ornament has been rejected as inappropriate.
