We don’t get President’s Day off because my firm is Atlanta based and chose to give us Martin Luther King Day..... because he’s more important than our founding father didn’t you know?

It is a disgrace that we have a Martin Luther King day, but not a day to honor George Washington. Instead we pack all the presidents into a single day and include in that day giving honor to scoundrels and cowards like Bill Clinton and Obama.

George Washington deserves an entire month. February should be George Washington month. Instead it is Black History month.

There was a holiday for Lincoln in the 1950’s, in the America that I grew up in, even in Louisiana- whether it was a federally sanctioned holiday was not generally known. All of the calendars showed Feb 12 as Lincoln’s Birthday.

That PBS claim that Lincoln never got a national holiday because of bitterness over Reconstruction is so typically LIBERAL!

THEN....the Indian dude mentions the penny, the fiver, Mt. Rushmore (I think he left out the Lincoln Memorial). So we’re still a bunch of angry racists! Sheesh!

PBS - “Praise Bolsheviks & Stalinists”

Give ‘em time - at the rate the denigration of our history is going on, we’ll soon have it changed to “Famous Person’s Birthday”.

Washington’s Birthday is February 22nd. It should be on February 22nd. That is what is wrong with America.

I’m Not interested in celebrating Obama day or Carter day or Clinton day.

I’ll celebrate when this clown is finally out of office where he can’t cause any further damage.
