Jesse Combs, president of Toypresidents Inc., holds a doll of President George W. Bush as he talks about the company's presidential dolls, at their Houston headquarters. The other presidents shown are, from left, John F. Kennedy, Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan . Each presidential doll wears hand-stitched clothing reminiscent of their era, such as Lincoln's top hat and Bush's navy suit, red tie and black cowboy boots adorned with the presidential seal. The dolls also talk; an embedded computer chip plays 25 different phrases the presidents uttered during their administrations.
For those keeping up with the White House Holiday stories, Education Secretary Paige and SBA Administrator Baretto will read The Grinch (in English and Spanish) tonight at 8pm as part of the continuing holiday bedtime story series.
I tried to make that picture of Sec. Paige larger but I only succeeded in making a red "X" show up. Sorry.
