In a recent discussion about political correctness and whether it has gone too far, President Barack Obama said it's a “tricky issue,” because "the definition of political correctness is all over the map.”
At one point in his pre-vacation interview with NPR, Obama used himself as an example: “I had to live through controversies like the notion that I was trying to kill Christmas. Right? Well, where’d that come from? Well, I bet, you know, well, he said ‘Happy Holidays’ instead of ‘Merry Christmas’. So, that, you know, that must be evidence of him either not being a Christian or not caring about Christmas. It — it sounds funny now, but you’ll have entire debates in conservative circles around that.” […]
Obama also warned against “hypersensitivity” that prevents people from expressing their opinions out of fear that they’ll be called racist: “If sort of our social discourse and our political discourse becomes like walking on eggshells so that if somebody says, ‘you know what, I’m not sure affirmative action is the right way to solve racial problems in this country’ — and they’re — somebody’s immediately accused of being racist. Well, then, I think you have a point (that political correctness has gone too far) although I happen to approve of affirmative action. But I think that I can have a polite dialogue with somebody who — who differs from me on that issue.” …

0nagger didn’t try to kill Christmas, he tried to kill America!
Do not recall that anyone said that Obama was trying to kill Christmas. However, he did put Christianity and Christians on the back burner with his focus on Muslims and Islam, his association with Rev. Wright, his giving preferential treatment to Muslim immigrants ignoring the plight of Christian refugees, ignoring the destruction of churches and Christians by the Muslim Brotherhood, persecution of Sisters of the Poor, forcing Christians to accept same sex marriage, elevating people with treatable mental disorders, etc.
You’ve tried to kill more than Christmas, Oasshole...America for one. FU.
29 days. 28 days. 27 days...

Barry The Boy King is trying to shore up his legacy with Crazy Glue and Duct Tape. Sad....but HILARIOUS. We are seeing the effects of Hopium Withdrawal.
Start with Obama's descecration of the traditional White House Christmas tree, at his 1st opportunity (2009). Below are the Mao and Homosexual bulbs the evil one had added to that tree:
Speaking of segregation.......Boobamba’s brain is segregated from any rational thought-process.
“I had to live through”, “hopelessness”.
These are phrases and words that psychiatrists look for to determine mental stability and a potential for suicide.
Didn’t some speculate he killed his racist grandmother?
Yes, how absurd to think that YOU, a deeply religious man who attended "church" regularly, for 20+ years!, would ever want to do such a thing!
(some key excerpts)
JOSE DIAZ-BALART, TELEMUNDO NETWORK: "Liberation theology in Nicaragua in the mid-1980's was a pro-Sandinista, pro-Marxist, anti-U.S., anti-Catholic Church movement. That's it. No ifs, ands, or buts. His church apparently supported, in the mid-'80s in Nicaragua, groups that supported the Sandinista dictatorships and that were opposed to the Contras whose reason for being was calling for elections. That's all I know. I was there.
I saw the churches in Nicaragua that he spoke of, and the churches were churches that talked about the need for violent revolution and I remember clearly one of the major churches in Managua where the Jesus Christ on the altar was not Jesus Christ, he was a Sandinista soldier, and the priests talked about the corruption of the West, talked about the need for revolution everywhere, and talked about 'the evil empire' which was the United States of America."
REV. BOB SCHENCK, NATIONAL CLERGY COUNCIL: "it's based in Marxism. At the core of his [Wright's] theology is really an anti-Christian understanding of God, and as part of a long history of individuals who actually advocate using violence in overthrowing those they perceive to be oppressing them, even acts of murder have been defended by followers of liberation theology. That's very, very dangerous."
SCHENCK: "I was actually the only person escorted to Dr. Wright. He asked to see me, and I simply welcomed him to Washington, and then I said Dr. Wright, I want to bring you a warning: your embrace of Marxist liberation theology. It is contrary to the Gospel, and you need, sir, to abandon it. And at that he dropped the handshake and made it clear that he was not in the mood to dialogue on that point."
