Barack Obama did not release a special statement for Christmas this year. From the White House website:

But, Barack Obama did issue a statement in celebration of the fake holiday Kwanzaa on Monday December 26. From the White House website:

Michelle and I send our warmest wishes to all those celebrating Kwanzaa this holiday season. Today marks the beginning of the week-long celebration honoring African American heritage and culture through the seven principles of Kwanzaa — unity, self determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith.

Please spend a moment at the WH website. You will find multiple statements from the President and First Lady passing on specific “Merry Christmas” greetings. Enough reasons not to like this guy without manufacturing false slights.

Good. His statements are a load of carp anyway.

Hanukkah gets mention in the New Testament as the Festival of Lights. There may be dispute about dates, but remembrance of Hanukkah and celebration of Nativity are equally biblical.

Still, no national statement. George W. Bush didn’t refrain from that.

What exactly do you want him to say? Does he have to address you personally?

i’m trying to remember ... i’m fairly certain US Presidents use to always give a Christmas message.

any presidential historians out there know if the Christmas message was common since the invention of commercial radio (1930s)?

I refer to Kwanzaa as a “politiday” because it surely isn’t holy.

“It’s like he tries to offend people.”

Just another jab at Christians in the war on Christianity waged by this pos poseur in chief.

” It’s like he tries to offend people.”

He is.

In fact Zippo is doing everything he can to screw everything up as bad as he can so that Hillary will look good by comparison.

It's called “Triangulation” or “The Third Way”.

Notice how anyone above the level of idiot now recognizes the extreme lefts way, socialism, Zippo’s way, simply doesn't work. Nobody benefits.

OWS is being used to paint the picture that the extreme rights way, capitalism,or as they like to call it the Tea Party Way, doesn't work either. Only 1% benefits.

Hillary's way will be “The Third Way”. It will be between socialism and capitalism.

In fact IIRC, Robert Reich, while in collage, thought he had come up with a completely new economic theory that fell between socialism and capitalism. Bill Clinton and Hillary Rodham were very impressed with this new economic theory.

Problem is Reich's new economic theory was not new. It was nothing more than National Socialism, Nazism, with a few tweaks.

The idea is to make Nazism look good in comparison to communism or capitalism.

Kwanza represents the cornerstone of Obama’s faith: “collective work and cooperative economics”. Of course he would honor it.

“unity, self determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith.”

“Disunity, self destruction, collective laziness and irresponsibility, socialized economics, Meaninglessness, destructive, and faithless.”

There Fixed.
