He runs from DC every Christmas so he doesnt have to be in the presense of the Christian holiday, the tree, decorations, yule tide greetings. He leaves this to a small faction of christains that might dwell in the white hut until all this is over and he can return. Much like a vampire that cannot stand garlic or a mirror. Nice! This is what we have come to.

But left out Christ and Christmas in their “holiday” message.

Simple Google search proves that wrong.

Statement from the President and the First Lady on Kwanzaa

Michelle and I extend our best wishes to all those celebrating Kwanzaa this holiday season. Today marks the beginning of the week-long celebration of African American culture through family activities and community festivities that bring attention to Kwanzaa’s seven principles of unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith. Though each principle represents the essence of this holiday, they also represent the shared values that bind us as Americans.

As families and communities across our country come together today to light the Kinara, our family sends our hopes for a prosperous and healthy new year.

But left out Christ and Christmas in their “holiday” message

Where did you hear that? This is from a post on FR:

The White House released a video and audio weekly address on Dec. 25 by the president and first lady who wished everyone “happy holidays” and a “Merry Christmas.” In addition to talking about the sacrifices made by America’s military in different parts of the world, President Obama remarked about social and community service that provides “a chance to celebrate the birth of Christ and live out what He taught us – to love our neighbors as we would ourselves.”

I'm stunned that he said that, but he apparently did.

There was a thread on that I saw here a few days ago. If the thread was wrong, then whoever posted it or reported it is to blame.

In any event, I doubt any inclusion of Christ or Christmas from these phonies was sincere

And this (from Dec. 25, 2013 address). . .

THE PRESIDENT: “That’s the same spirit of giving that connects all of us during the holidays. So many people all across the country are helping out at soup kitchens, buying gifts for children in need, or organizing food or clothing drives for their neighbors.”

“For families like ours, that service is a chance to celebrate the birth of Christ and live out what He taught us – to love our neighbors as we would ourselves; to feed the hungry and look after the sick; to be our brother’s keeper and our sister’s keeper.”

“And for all of us as Americans, regardless of our faith, those are values that can drive us to be better parents and friends, better neighbors and better citizens.”

The only thing I've seen about kwanza was a local tv station showing elementary kids at a kwanza program. It showed some blacks in psudo african dress hip hopping while drums were beating.

Why would anyone celebrate the “Quonset Hut”? Oh, I forgot, low education types.

Ron Karenga - marxist, killer, thug, con artist, “professor”, convict?, Al Sharpton’s father.

Yep, Happy Quonset Hut, Ron. At least it served our country. What have you done for it besides rip off foolish liberals and poor blacks?
