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.

It’s amazing how many idiots believe stuff like this. That’s the thing to really be afraid of.
We can’t in a right mind call you president.
Idiot!!!!!!
Sad. Our military is protecting us from the same people Obama is trying not to offend.
Screw this Tyrant. May he assume room temp soon
I will not comply, mr obama.
It is sad how fast people comment on things like this without checking. This first came up two years ago and false. Then it came up again from an unknown soldier (supposedly) theat “heard” this. Look it up on fact check or snopes.
If you check various YouTube videos from the Christmas that just passed, you will see Obama telling the country Merry Christmas.
I have many dissagreement with the President some of which are serious and consequential. Nobody has to make up BS for political purposes but it is all to common. You should check out anything you read on this “Truth Action ” site before you repost or comment and protect your personal integrity.
Before posting, the source should be checked out. NOT TRUE.
