It's actually not a Christmas hat. It's called a camauro, and it was originally worn by popes back in the 17th century.

That's why I'm saying it was modified. They shouldn't look that way. His teeth shouldn't look that way either.

It doesn't surprise me at all that the media will doctor a photo just to make it look bad, remember what they did to Bush on the note he was writing a few months back.
