President Obama took a break from saving the icebergs to weigh in on what he believes to be the true meaning of Christmas – loving tiny trees.
The president, along with the first lady, delivered their homage to foliage during an appearance on a television program recognizing the 50th anniversary of "A Charlie Brown Christmas."
"For half a century, people of all ages have gathered around the tv to watch Charlie Brown, Lucy, Linus and the rest of the gang teach us the true meaning of Christmas," Mrs. Obama said during a taping of ABC's "It's Your 50th Christmas, Charlie Brown."
That was all well and good - until President Obama chimed in.
"They teach us that tiny trees just need a little love, and that on this holiday we celebrate peace on Earth and goodwill toward all," he said.
Wait. What?
Does the president really believe that "A Charlie Brown Christmas" was all about tiny trees pining for love?
"Because as Linus knows, that's what Christmas is all about," Mrs. Obama declared.

I don’t know who I loathe more.
The dumb bastard in the White Hut, or those who continue to support and defend him.
This is about as stupid as a moderator asking Jeb about fantasy football regulations . . .
There is no way he said this. My head will explode.
“Because as Linus knows, that’s what Christmas is all about,” Mrs. Obama declared.

I’d like a president who unashamedly will stand up and say:
“My fellow Americans. The real meaning of this federal holiday on December 25th is to celebrate the birth of a person who lived and died. Like others whom we devote a day to, eg Lincoln, Washington, Columbus, Martin Luther King, this man, Jesus Christ was someone who, during his life, embodied many of the characteristics of humankind that we should emulate. WE call this day Christmas. And it’s a tradition to wish a person a Merry CHristmas....etc etc “etc.”
I feel the same way.
What a refreshing thought!
I’m surprised a Christian would think that! \major sarc
Didn’t he work “climate change” into it somehow? After all,he has said it is the worst problem facing us. I wish it was.
Trees have feelings too!
We watched it up until that point then we turned it OFF......................
That sounds delicious. Obviously not in a public school.
I wonder who is growing all that quinoa? I’d never even heard of that grain until a couple of years ago. Now it is in everything.
Are the quinoa growings growing rich? Is that a form of microaggression against wheat and corn?
obamatollah has written his loyalty and allegiance is to the dark satanic death cult known as islam.
obamatollah hates God and His Judaeo-Christian followers.
obamatollah will NEVER recognize Christmas as celebrating God and His messiah’s birth.
What does a mohammedan know about Christmas, anyway?
It’s a metaphor, folks. He’s referring to our children.
It may be, but it’s *still* not the meaning of Christmas which is what Michelle’s set-up was.
There are no words to describe this vile, contemptible POS.
