Text of President Bush's Kwanzaa message:

I send greetings to those celebrating Kwanzaa.

Kwanzaa celebrates the traditional African values of unity,
self-determination, collective work and responsibility,
cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith. From
December 26th to January 1st, people of African descent
gather to renew their commitment to these seven
principles, known as Nguzo Saba, and give thanks for the
blessings of family, community, and culture. Kwanzaa is
also a time for Africans and African-Americans to honor
their common heritage by participating in events based on
early harvest gatherings called matunda ya kwanza, or first
fruits.

As individuals and families join together during Kwanzaa,
their joy enriches communities in the United States and
across the globe. By uniting people of diverse backgrounds
and beliefs, this holiday promotes mutual understanding
and respect. These universal principles inspire us as we
work together for a future of freedom, hope, and
opportunity for all.

Laura joins me in sending our best wishes for a memorable
Kwanzaa, and for peace, happiness, and success in the
coming year.

This is clearly unconstitutional. Using taxpayer hard stolen income to pay for a Christmas greeting that magnifies Christ. Where is the ACLU when you need them?

Yes, it sarcasm.

Ping ... didn't want you to miss this; just thought you'd like to denegrate this one also.
