\n
\nWASHINGTON — The White House now says it won’t display a Christmas tree ornament by a Seattle artist that includes a message supporting President Bush’s impeachment.
\n
\nArtist Deborah Lawrence says she wanted to salute Democratic Rep. Jim McDermott of Seattle, a longtime Bush foe who backs impeachment.
\n
\nThe nine-inch ball, is covered with swirly red and white stripes and features a picture of McDermott. Tiny glued-on text salutes the impeachment resolution.
\n
\nFirst lady Laura Bush had asked members of Congress to pick artists to decorate ornaments for the White House Christmas tree. Her spokeswoman, Sally McDonough, originally said there were no plans to pull Lawrence’s artwork. But McDonough said Tuesday that the ornament is inappropriate.<\/p>\n
