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 gets worse every day. What happened to one nation under God?
When are congress and senators going to do their job? Time for him to go.
Merry Christmas to the US military, this country (under God) appreciates all that you do and have to put up with under this arrogant, deceptive & evil Obama administration. May God have mercy on America. I pray that He will remove the evil that has been (and continues to be) put in place by them. We The People, need an honest, God-fearing, strong, true American man/woman placed in this office!
Nobody should listen to or do anything he says.
‘The Military’ ought to show up at our Whitehouse and wish him a personal Merry Christmas.
You used too many letters. It’s just POS!!
FYI, I know LOTS of people that left the unemployment office, gave up. That would add to Obamas unemployment rate statistics. They started working online and from home making.
Tell him where he can stick it.
Nothing he says is legal.
amazing how far the liberal progressives will go to hide the truth … which is that the Paris attack by radical muslmis actually happened as a result of our community organizer’s ‘lead from behind’ policy. we have all learned observing obama that he ‘leads from behind’ cause he is NOT a leader, and is way over his head. obama made things worse by pulling every last US security force out of Iraq leading to the growth of ISIS in the vacuum left there, and then refused to stop the spread of ISIS and their taking over of territories in libya, syria, afghanistan, etc. .etc. the blood of the christian genocide in the middle east, and the latest attack on paris is on Obama and Hillary’s hands.
