The Bush Family Christmas Card Circa 1980-Something

Ken McCracken  •  September 8, 2007

Kind of a fun blast-from-the-past for the weekend (click for a larger view).

Note the totally politically incorrect cigarette in “George Jr.’s” hand and the “Support UNICEF” exhortation in the corner.

    Where’s Bandar Bush?
    OOOOPS I guess he became a family member later on.

    W sure looks cocky

    He’s smiling. Is that now a crime according to BDS sufferers?

    Amusing how all the boys have flipped their ties over their shoulders, and Dorothy is looking away thinking: “Jeez, my brothers are such dorks.”

    Yeah, with boys like that, I bet Mrs. Bush went white early on. My sis-in-law had the same problem: hair turned grey in her 20s after having a son.

    Of course those sons would have given Barbara white hair. But I think she actually turned white shortly after Robin’s death.

    Was Barbara born with white hair? W sure looks cocky

    this is no christmas card. it was taken right after the first meeting of the cabal of neocons plotting the 9-11 attacks. isnt that obvious. Look, Chimpy McHitler is smiling, and BushHitlerBurton Pere is obviously looking at Karl Rove, who is telling the family to smile as if to make it APPEAR to be a christmas card.

    c’mon people, this is too obvious.

    sincerely,

    1980s? This is clearly the early 1970s. I think it looks 1972ish, based on the Greg Brady clothes the sons are wearing.

    Was Barbara born with white hair?

    No, she wasn’t. It’s a natural substitute to Clariol hair coloring products called Having Kids
    ;-P

    Not only that, but they used the “C” word! TWICE!

    Bush Sr. kinda reminds me of McFly.

    GHW Bush was ambassador to the UN from 71-73, if it was during that time it would explain the UNICEF line.

    I am thinking that Mom and Dad made all the boys wear jackets and ties – they complied, but all swept the ties to the side and slung the jackets over their shoulders. Being reasonable parents, the Bush’s took what they could get.

    Not the 80′s – early 70′s. Dorothy was born in 1959 and she couldn’t be more than 13ish in this photo. If this were the 80′s she would have to be around 21. I’m with Lou – probably 1972.

    So as we can see poor choices are somewhat ‘second-nature’ to GW? enjoying a butt during a christmas card photo shoot.

    I wonder if he inhaled?

  • buzz

    Good Lord. W is smoking a cigerette in a Christmas picture from 35 years ago!!! Clearly he should burn in hell.

    A traditional family enjoying themselves on a religious holiday?? We can’t have any of that!!! Call the ACLU!!
