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:
Merry Christmas! One nation under GOD! Happy birthday Lord Jesus! Are just some of the words that will ring in Obama’s ears threw out eternity; Amen!!
Please tell me this is not true!
You guys will believe anything except the truth
You gotta be f’n kidding!
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas! Not you O
He needs to go golf and stay out of the way.
This is another lie.
Check the facts before getting your panties is a twist. Obama never ordered that the word Christmas be struck down in the military. Numerous Military Personnel have also stated that Obama never struck down the word Christmas. I’m not a big Obama fan, but I am tired of all the lies and hate.
This man still claims to be a Christian!?
