Mao-y Christmas from The White House

As noted at Nice Deb, the White House is spreading the Lefty (and super tacky) cheer this holiday season (I’m sure that’s what they call it; they can’t say Christmas season- Egads!).

Who on Earth designed such a thing? Not only is it super duper tacky, it is all disheveled looking with bare spots and hanging bits galore. Parts of it are awfully droopy as well – perhaps meant to reflect Obama’s drooping poll numbers? Breitbart’s BigGovernment.com has the scoop; and if you thought the tree itself was bad enough, wait until you see the actual ornaments!

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.

These photos of ornaments on the White House Christmas tree in the Blue Room were taken just days ago. Of course, Mao has his place in the White House.

Stay classy, Left! A transvestite ornament, Lincoln as Obama (dude, again? That’s really getting played out. Plus, dummies, Lincoln was a Republican), Obama’s head superimposed on Mount Rushmore (hubris, much?) and Mao. MAO. On the Christmas Tree in the White House – the home of the man who is supposed to be the Leader of the Free World.

Allahpundit at Hot Air points out that perhaps the Administration really did not know – they couldn’t possibly be so dense as to proceed if they had – could they? I’m not so sure. I think they are that dense and, more importantly, that arrogant and “in your face-y.” Plus, even if they did not know, that’s really almost as bad. Just how darn clueless ARE they?

Honestly, you can’t make this stuff up. I would be pointing and snickering madly at both their misplaced audacity (of no hope) and their utter incompetence in every single area – even a Christmas tree, for goodness sake. I would be pointing and snickering, if only it wasn’t so truly revealing and frightening.
