The Obama administration has directed the military to not allow personnel to say “Christmas”, in spite of the holiday’s status as a federally-recognized holiday.
The reason given by armed forces officials is that not everyone celebrates Christmas and that out of respect for them, military members should refer to Christmas celebrations simply as “holiday”-themed festivities.
This prohibition comes in the context of a wider push for political correctness in society in general and the military in particular, as evidenced by the recent reprimanding of Navy Chaplain Wes Modder for simply discussing religion, as chaplains are wont to do, with military personnel.
See how servicemen have reacted to not being allowed to say Christmas at the link below:
If this is true, he has violated the 1st amendment more than 200000 times.
Not sure what is more disturbing, people actually believe something like this without even checking it out, or the complete hatred for our president. It’s obvious this is a lie because it is just stupid to most rational people. Only purpose it serves is to fire up the hate rhetoric. Apparently mission accomplished.
Obama, You may have a pen, but Americans also have a telephone. Ring any bells????
Obama’s having his traditional BF-
I’m Jewish not a Christian and I always say Merry Christmas I do not feel threatened by others religion I enjoy the feeling of the Christmas season and the beautiful music that accompanies it. God save America
