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.

Obama has lost his ever loving mind, this nation was founded on Christiian princeples, Just who does he think he is, he is a complete idiot.
MERRY CHRISTMAS WASHINGTON
The military does not work for the president! The military works for “We the People!” We are the government! All those people in Washington DC work for us! But most of them are not doing their job and honoring their oath of office which is to protect the Constitution and the American people! Arrest this illegal for treason, fraud and trying to destroy our Constitution!
Merry Xmas. !!!! That solves the problem until he gets out his pen.
