For the front of the card, the Bushes selected a painting by T. Allen Lawson, featuring a view of the Washington Monument and Jefferson Memorial from the Truman Balcony of the executive mansion. Inside is a Bible verse from Matthew and a personal message:

“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Matthew 5:16

“May your heart and home be filled with the joys of the holiday season.”http://www2.ljworld.com/news/2008/dec/04/white-house-cards-boast-area-ties/

I like this one too, but my favorite was the first one, because I was sooooooooooooo glad to Have George W. Bush in the White House, and I loved the art on the cover.. of the present in the chair.

yes... something to strive for, and something which President and Mrs. Bush Exemplify.

“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Matthew 5:16

It doesn't look very Christmasy to me.

I wish it didn't have those pillars there ... it reminds me of the Oomination’s styrofoam pillars.

Bush has a mixed legacy. Having said that, atleast he kept us SAFE. He was not an appeaser as the Obominstion is.

Why would someone bother making a card that quotes New Testament scripture, but then refers to some vague “holiday season”? Is it Christmas or not, for Christ’s sake (literally)?
