President's Christmas Lunch

Official Holiday 2006 Portrait: President Bush and Mrs. Laura Bush, by Eric Draper

This Christmas, with Baghdad burning, with USAID's provision of basic necessities to southern Iraq, and with a death toll surpassing 650,000 (according to The Washington Post from a report by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health), you can rest assured that George and Laura enjoyed an untroubled, home-style Christmas lunch (below) in the presidential retreat at Camp David (formerly known as Shangri-La to FDR -- where one can "fall off the world," according to Mark Knopfler).

i dont understand the sarcasm here. just because he happens to be president of the U.S, does that mean he has to eat PB & J for christmas? i'm no big fan of his, but don't you think you're being unreasonable with your pointy stick?

Why not criticize? Iraqis are starving, while the Bush family feasts on the wreckage of their lives which they themselves (the Bushes) have visited upon the Iraqis?

Clearly, Super Chef is "talkin' 'bout guiltiness, as Bob Marley once sang. Clearly, "These are the big fish, who always try to eat down the small fish."

For that matter, why didn't the Bush Family fast on Christmas day and send extra food to Iraq -- as an act of Christian charity?
