LET SANTA LIGHT THE MENORAH
WHITE HOUSE IN HANUKKAH TREE GAFFE
By LUKAS I. ALPERT

Merry Hanukkah from the White House!

The president and the first lady invited leaders of America's Jewish community for a Hanukkah reception at the White House next month - but raised more than a few eyebrows by putting a picture of a Christmas tree on the invitation.

The message reads that the couple "requests the pleasure of your company at a Hanukkah reception," written beneath an image of a Clydesdale horse hauling a Christmas fir along the snow-dappled drive to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

1. When the Bush administration is not thuggish and ethically abominable,

it is clueless and clumsy.

2. Sarah Palin was 8 years too late

:P

3. Yep. Poor Sarah. She's only been at this for what -- a few months? --

and right out of the gate, she's a laughing stock.

The next 4 years, I predict, aren't going to be smooth ones for the Palins.

4. yah, like "Santa Claus" living at the north pole, etc., is such a Christian symbol!

Exclusive. I mean, only a Christian believer could enter houses down chimneys that don't even exist anymore. I know this because it says so in some bible, somewhere, I'm sure - and if it doesn't, it should.

5. Yes. I've seen boxes of Christmas cards with Frosty the Snowman

looking up at the star-over-the-manger.

Desert setting, said manger far off in the distance, Frosty looking inquiringly humble at the star...

6. With lies, hate and fear the repubs tried to win the Jewish vote. It didn't work.

We voted 78% proObama. It might have been their "screw you" to us. I really don't care.

7. This Jew wouldn't vote for a Republican ever. Screw 'em

8. I'm surprised it was the Nativity Scene.

9. Maybe W thought it was a "Chanukah Bush"
