Obama family's White House holiday card is L.A. artist's design (typical inane, cold secularism)
LA Times ^ | 12-15-11

*snip*

The image, seen above, places Bo in front of the fireplace in the White House library with a poinsettia and other decorations. The inside of the card features the presidential seal along with a holiday greeting: "From our family to yours, may your holidays shine with the light of the season."

The card is signed by the President and first lady, their daughters, Malia and Sasha, as well as Bo, the family's Portuguese water dog.

if I received this, I’d birth a liberal on it

the appropriate way to greet anyone during the holidays would be to wish your beliefs greetings on the other person. their response would be to return it in kind

ie:
Christian to Jewish person: “Merry Christmas!”
Jewish person in return: “Happy Hanukkah”
atheist person in return: “Thank you. Merry Christmas” (since they don’t believe, they can return the sentiment without disrespecting anything)

to say ‘seasons greetings’ or ‘happy holidays’ would disrespect your beliefs and place the other person in a position to disrespect theirs in return

I find nothing wrong with this photo. Could have used a tree but nothing I havent seen before.

We know he's not a born-again so I don't expect pictures of Christ or anything.

Here was Bush's in 2003 for reference...

moochelle’s signature looks like the kind of cursive that is taught in American schools.

You would not expect her husband’s to look like he learned to write in an American school, would you?

Though inside it said:

“You have granted me life and loving kindness; and your care has preserved my spirit. Job 10:12 (NASB)

May you celebrate the joys of faith, family and friendship this holiday season and always. 2003”

Bo has pretty good handwriting for a dog. Or maybe I should say pawwriting.

Is it a coincidence that their dog is named after Baraq’s initials? So even when His Highness isn’t in the Christmas card, he is still there? BO in front of the fireplace. Only a narcissist could come up with that tripe.

At least it doesn’t feature condoms and crack pipes like Hillary’s Christmas tree did one year.

I gotta say, that is an ugly card, even though the words are more meaningful than that from the White Hut.

I bet it has been 30-40 years since a White House Christmas card mentioned Christ.

It is a beautiful card and I love the dog. There are so many things of substance which we can criticize. Not a Christmas card though.

Care to post a Bush Family Christmas card from a time he has living in the White House?

There’s something very strange about Obama’s signature.

Why, I am insulted! If it is a pure holiday card, why are there only holly and poinsettias in the picture? There should be Eid foods and a menorah on the table. A sacrifice to Gaia should be burning in the fireplace. How dare Obama only hVe the signs of Christmas in his card!

Looks like ΒΦ (Beta Phi). It's a sorority.
