Tony Blair's Christmas card is terrifying
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair may not be smiling, but recipients of his Christmas card sure are. The photo features his wife, Cherie Blair, smiling under a classic "Season's Greetings" message. Tony, unfortunately, is grimacing hard beside her.
Naturally, Twitter is having a field day.
A spokesperson for Blair's office got salty with CNN, saying, "We do not 'officially' release the card, cards are sent to their friends and colleagues, which doesn't seem to me to be that unusual a process let alone one which merits such interest."
