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.

Everyone knows this is a B.S. story right just a little Google search and you to can have the truth.

Screw Obama and say merry christmas. Can’t fire the entire military but then hee has fired the top Generals

Obama must be losing his mind. No one will not tell me I can’t say Christmas. Merry Christmas to everyone and especially the troops. I hope y’all say Christmas over and over again. Send Obama a message Christmas is here to stay.
This article is not true at all! Merry Christmas!!
Our military should arrest for treason!!!!
Ill be glad when this idiot leaves office.
Another incorrect post. It’s unfortunate as some people actually believe this is true.
