full title..... The Obamas honor the military in their last holiday message from the White House: 'Their courage allows us to enjoy the season' ..........................President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama used their final Christmas address from the White House on Saturday to acknowledge the sacrifices of American servicemen and women in the armed forces.

'No one better embodies that spirit of service than the men and women who wear our country's uniform and their families,' the president said in the video message that was posted on social media Saturday.

'As always, many of our troops are far from home this time of year and their families are serving and sacrificing right along with them,' the first lady said.

'Their courage and dedication allow the rest of us to enjoy the season. That's why we've tried to serve them as well as they've served this country.'

They love the military so much he didn’t give them a pay raise before he left for Hawaii.

Nothing the 0bamas do can be called ‘hororing’ unless its object is toward Muslims. The title should be “The 0bamas pay useless lip service to the U. S. Military.”

From reading the article it appears OBAMA managed to make CHRISTMAS about himself. LOL

‘hororing’ = ‘honoring’.

Obama honoring the military is like Hitler honoring the Jews.

In celebrating the Christmas holiday Trump should make an announcement that all the generals fired by this little arrogant turd will be rehired

Michelle looked attractive.

I'm not crazy about those little flower bouquets on her top, but she looked nice. Michelle looks quite good when when she smiles (as opposed to her usual scowl), and when she wears clothes that fit and flatter her. Unfortunately, she tends to choose ugly and expensive clothing that does nothing for her.

Perhaps Mister Obama has noticed that Trump already looks more presidential than he; and that Trump always compliments our Military.

One suspects that he is standing in the spotlight on the courage of our fine Military in order to look good himself on the way out.

Likely, with just words, trying to win their favor in case he yet needs it. He must think that they are really stupid to fall for his empty rhetoric. All he has to do is give his big smile and they will fall at his feet.

Obama, they are not stupid and gullible as you imagine. They are wiley and sharp, and they completely have your number, which is zero.
