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.

What a sad day it is for our country.
Merry Christmas to all the world…..hope I didn’t miss anyone.
Christians and Christmas was here way before muslim cult was created, they didi’nt succeed in the 1400s, & they are not going to succeed now.
I call BS on this because no one in this country can take away free speech. If he tells someone to not say this then he is centering out against one religion and that is not permitted by someone in his position. No one would let this happen.
Baloney!!
Obama you can go to Hell, its our and there rights to say Merry Christmas, your not God
