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.

This story is 2 years old. And it wasn’t the administration that ordered anything. It was over zealous public relations officers. Another Facebook post used to get people worked up over nothing. And everyone is dumb enough to take a bite.
Freedom of speech, just like there is freedom of not liking it.. So I will first wish you a happy thanksgiving, but, merry Christmas and a happy new year. If you can’t deal with that.. Then, that’s your problem, not mine.
Obama is anti-American
Go f yourself you Muslim want a be !!
Obviously Obama is possessed by an anti-christ spirit…
