Our beloved president has expressed bewilderment at recent polls showing large numbers of Americans doubt his commitment to Christianity.
Because we hate to see our president even a wee bit flummoxed, let's help him out. Do most Christians you know choose to decorate their Christmas tree with smiling images of Chairman Mao, who murdered at least 50 million of his countrymen, as well as signed photos of transvestite Hedda Lettuce? Well, that's the very special holiday magic the Obamas decided to hang on their tree for their first White House Christmas, courtesy of famed Barney's designer Simon Doonan.
Maybe we're just old-fashioned, but it's our impression that most Christians celebrate the holidays with more serene images of angels, snowflakes and scenes from the Nativity.
Also, do most Christians you know beautify their Christmas tree with images of themselves ensconced on Mount Rushmore? Oddly enough, that's just what Mr. Obama decided to hang on his tree, fresh from his triumph winning the Nobel Prize. Perhaps images of Jesus or Mary were all sold out that day.
One other point: Most Christians of our acquaintance who want to pass on their sincere love of Christianity take their children to church on Christmas. If so, they might want to speak to the president about that, since he couldn't be bothered -- on Christmas or any other week.
Of course, the likeliest explanation is he was too transfixed by that shiny image of himself on Mount Rushmore to even leave the room.
Stepping back in time to Christmas 2009:

“Transvestites, Mao And Obama (on Mt. Rushmore) Ornaments Decorate White House Christmas Tree”

SNIPPET: “Why let a holiday season come between the White House and making some political statements? The White House pegged controversial designer Simon Doonon to oversee the Christmas decorations for the White House. Mr. Doonon, who is creative director of Barney’s New York has often caused a stir with his design choices. Like his naughty yuletide window display of Margaret Thatcher as a dowdy dominatrix and Dan Quayle as a ventriloquist’s dummy. For this year’s White House, he didn’t disappoint.
These photos of ornaments on the White House Christmas tree in the Blue Room were taken just days ago. Of course, Mao has his place in the White House.”

Chairman Mao Adorns White House Christmas Tree

President Obama and our first lady have chosen a lovely ornament featuring China’s mass murderer, Chairman Mao, to adorn our national Christmas tree at the White House.
Though this is a slap in the face to every American, the Mao ornament is not a surprising choice – considering the eerie parallels between China’s Great Leap Forward and the path Obama has put America on today, as described in Chairman O and America’s Great Leap Forward.
Joining Mao on the White House tree are a few other ornaments that also mirror the mind set of the current inhabitants of the White House.
There’s a lovely bauble featuring a drag queen and another cutting edge ornament showing Obama’s face superimposed on Mount Rushmore.
Considering Obama’s hostility to Christianity, as shown by his celebration of every religion except Christianity, Americans shouldn’t be surprised. After all, the first thing any successful dictator must do is banish God from the public square and make fealty to the state primary.

“Obama’s Christmas Tree a Gay Communist Hotbed”
SNIPPET: “Hedda’s blog explains that Doonan didn’t exactly contrive to get her on the tree. Rather, the White House sent boxes of plain bulbs to schools and charities, including a gay community center at which Hedda volunteers, for creative decoupaging. Hedda decorated her bulb as any self-respecting star of stage and reality television guest spots would, by festooning it with images of herself. Hedda’s account of discovering her ornament made the tree:
I may never get equal rights, I may never be blond and pencil thin, I may never see Lady Gaga in concert this winter at Madison Square Garden (I could not get a ticket) but one of my balls is hanging in the White House with my name for all to see.”

What gay, Marxist-supporting terrorist would not?
Do Most Christians Decorate Christmas Trees With Ornaments of Chairman Mao and Transvestites?

Some say that this year’s Christmas decorations will include a “Great Leaders of Islamo-Marxism” Nativity Scene and wet bar.
I remember strange ornaments on the Clinton christmas tree. (I didn’t capitalize Christmas there because that tree had nothing to do with Christ)
Chatter and jokes had been floating around the Whitehouse about fundamentalists who say the Christmas tree is bad due to the practices of ancient fertility cults after it came out that a lot of people were ticked off at "Happy Holidays" rather than "Merry Christmas" being common. So, the Clintons picked a tree with a sort of curve in the trunk and made it a pagan fertility cult tree as an inside joke like their inside joke of, “nice tie” as a substitute for “f you”.
At least, that was the rumor in at the time.
I'm almost afraid to ask about their egg nog.....
I remember that horrible Christmas tree! It had always been an enjoyable evening to see the Wite House Christmas Show (especially when President Bush and First Lady Laura were there!) Everything was so Beautiful and in such good taste; even with little Barney and Miss Beasley in there somewhere for the children’s enjoyment. When I saw what an atrocity the Obama Tree was last year, with Chairman Mao and all those others who have nothing to do with Christianity, I was upset and angry. Does anyone know what “Theme” Michelle has come up with for this year? After having seen those horrible drapes last night in the newly decorated Oval Office—which cost $2 million dollars is obscene with so many out of work, losing their homes etc. I’m dreading what Christmas at the W.H. will look like this time!!! So many families won’t even be able to afford a Tree or much else. The utter waste and extravagances of the First Family has become a source of utter DISGUST to everyone I know!
