Federal officials say the National Christmas Tree planted near the White House a year ago has died and is being removed.
The National Park Service says the Colorado blue spruce died of "transplant shock." It came from a tree farm in New Jersey last year and was planted on the Ellipse just south of the White House in March 2011.

Transfer shock? Would it actually take over a year for this to happen? More likely it was poisoned from the run-off of Moochelle’s garden.
In other news, the Eid bush is thriving, in spite of frequent unscheduled waterings by passersby.
Did you see the rootball on that tree, when it arrived? It was freaking HUGE. It probably could have survived a year with just minimal watering, but since the East Coast didn’t get very much moisture this past winter, the spring shock from new growth might have drained all of its remaining energy. Only God knows for sure. Plant autopsies are problematic, in that there can be several obvious causes of death. Only expensive labwork can narrow it down. I’m betting 0bummer “watered it” in the evenings, after too many drinks.
That thing needs a “Bic Lighter watering”, IMO.
....and Yuccity-Yucca back atcha.

Prolly been lettin Bo raise his leg on it every day.
Grinch-in-Chief’s fault.
Thanks carriage_hill.
you’re wrong. if they can use ‘Christmas’ and ‘died’ in the same headline, they will allow it
lol
Obama has managed to kill 2 Christmas trees in his first term!
Even nature hates him.
“Don’t piss-off Mother Nature!”
I heard/read that somewhere.
Or maybe it’s all the fossil fuel exhaust from his all-too-many Air Force One trips that’s p’luting the air. Time to park it and play Monopoly with the girls instead of us.
MG = 6
c_h = 1
LOL.
“Time to park it...”
Not a chance; they’re *entitled people*, remember?
I’d bet it’s 0bummer hisownself. He hates *Infidel* symbols.
the tree ran out of carbon credits and could no longer survive with the CO2 deficit as it is
That fits. It died a "Natural" death.
All the radioactive muslim homosexual sh!t waves from the White Shack killed it.
