How Do God & President Obama Differ?


God does not believe he's Obama:

The 63-foot Sierra White Fir lighted at the U.S. Capitol Grounds on Dec. 6 as the official 2011 Capitol Christmas Tree includes a prominently displayed ornament paying homage to President Barack Obama, but includes no ornament readily visible to a person standing near the tree's base that uses the word “Christmas,” or includes an image of the Nativity, or bears the name or image of Jesus Christ.

Good Lord (no pun intended). Story here.

These CNS Propagandists are taking petty to a whole new level…

First off, this accusation implies that the president has anything to do with the decorations at the White House. Anyone who has ever taken the Christmas tree tour there knows that a team of designers and stylists decorate each tree with a specific theme. He has nothing to do with it.

Second, it makes perfect sense that a publicly displayed Christmas tree at the White House would refrain from featuring any religious symbology. I am sure that Chanukah and Kwanza are also absent from the tree in question. The first family also has a private tree which might have those kinds of ornaments on it.

Third and this is the most obvious question is…who cares? Does it negatively affect anyone in anyway? No. Is it just another reason for these right-wing nuts to complain? Absolutely.

Fourth, did any of these folks ever care about what kind of tree Bush had? Probably not. You probably think the tree is Marxist or something.

Michael -

"He has nothing to do with it."

Probably not the tree - that was just a convenient prop for my point, which you obviously missed. But Obama and his supporters believe he's "the one" we've been waiting for and he has the power to lower the oceans. Remember that?

"This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal." - Barack Obama

"This is bigger than Kennedy. . . . This is the New Testament." | "I felt this thrill going up my leg. I mean, I don't have that too often. No, seriously. It's a dramatic event." - Chris Matthews

"We're here to evolve to a higher plane . . . he is an evolved leader . . . [he] has an ear for eloquence and a Tongue dipped in the Unvarnished Truth." - Oprah
Winfrey

"I'll do whatever he says to do. I'll collect paper cups off the ground to make his pathway clear." - Halle Berry

That's just a very small sampling Michael.

"Second, it makes perfect sense that a publicly displayed Christmas tree at the White House would refrain from featuring any religious symbology."

You have got to be kidding me. Only someone thoroughly schooled and brainwashed in PC ideology would make a statement like that. It's a CHRISTmas tree! Get it?

"I am sure that Chanukah and Kwanza are also absent from the tree in question."

Yes, I suppose that makes sense given, again, that it's a CHRISTmas tree.

"Third and this is the most obvious question is…who cares?"

Obviously, you do, since you took the time to comment on it.

"Is it just another reason for these right-wing nuts to complain? Absolutely."

No, more like another reason for left-wing nuts to freak out because someone poked fun at Dear Leader. Just poking fun and spreading good cheer. Unpucker.

"You probably think the tree is Marxist or something."

No, no, no - you're getting the tree confused with the President.

This is turning into a game of "Wack-a-mole" isn't it?
