I think it's a very fitting ornament. It looks like a pine box used for burying a dead body out in a remote field.

It also looks like a packing crate one would use for shipping stolen housewares.

It also resembles a cattle car for Hillary's girlfriends (Shalala, Reno etc).

The Clinton White House used to hang condoms from the White House Christmas trees.

Yes, it was an old railroad depot. I forget the significance it had to the black community, but despite the protests, Bubba tore it down all the same.
