Christmas spirit dies on Obama’s watch; ornament-hawking White House gift shop goes bankruptIt's no wonder. People in general are fed up with politics.
In another sign of the tough times in Washington these days, the White House Gift Shop, long run by a nonprofit group that helps uniformed Secret Service officers and their families, has gone broke.
The Secret Service Uniformed Division Benefit Fund, which traces its roots to the 1940s and for years did business as the official White House Gift Shop, lists more than $600,000 in liabilities in a pending bankruptcy petition in Washington....
Just last week, I saw my liberal neighbor, long an Obama supporter, throw out lots of those official White House ornaments. An interesting symbolic gesture. Maybe he's gotten a look at what his 40-something son's health insurance premium will be under ObamaCare.
