I got a manila envelope in the mail yesterday from the White House. Uh-oh, I thought. Game's up. Time to go home...

I was joking to the other half when I said, "I hope it's not a picture of Bush"... Unfortunately, I had to eat my words because that was exactly the contents of the envelope! :scared:

I now have an 8" x 10" color photo of GW himself, with the words, "Congratulations XXXX XXXXX" and his signature.

I'm seriously thinking of hanging this in one of the toilets in the house but I think even my in-laws would be offended.

Has anyone else received such a picture as a result of having become a US citizen?

How disrespectful ..... send it to me if you don't want it ... I would be honored to have such an item ...

Target practice?

Classic! I hope I get one when I become a USC (hopefully in the summer). I'll frame it and give it to the M-i-L (not the biggest fan of Dubya) to remind her that I emigrated so that she could be close to her daughter. And we gave her two grandchildren.

I know how you feel... Speechless (kinda unusual for Fatbrit, eh?)!

I wanted to give you karma for that one but it seems I keep trying to give it to the same people. Anyone else want some so I can spread it around a bit more?

Actually. I never thought of that myself. I could use the pic for target practice myself when I next go to the range.. Thanks for the idea!

Is this a ploy to stop people applying for citizenship? If you become a citizen you get signed photo of GW. I tried to retract my N-400 but its too late.

Expect site slowdown as NSA Cray logs in to track site...

But eloquent nevertheless...

I'd laminate it and turn it into a darts board

I'd put it in the bathroom, there are times when you when run out of bog roll

I would like it to add to my popular leaders of the world wall display
It would go nicely with my one of :
His Excellency President for Life Field Marshal, General, President Lord of All Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Sea and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular, Big Daddy,.King of Scotland...Idi Amin Dada Oumee VC CBE MC DSO ..

May his soul be skewered and kebabed in Purgatory for all eternity

GW puts kisses after his name ? cool
