And If Obama Walked on Water, They’d Say He’s Too Lazy to Swim
First the Obamas had a War on Christmas and wah, wah, wah, they didn’t love little Baby Jesus.
Now they have too many Christmas decorations.
Amazing how a reelection can reshape an incumbent’s thinking about many things. Now safely ensconced in the White House for 49 more months, the Obamas have decorated the place with 54 Christmas trees this year.
Even allowing for the usual Washington excesses with taxpayer money, that’s a whole grove of Christmas trees.
Holy crap, first he’s not Christian enough and now he’s way too Christian.
As any casual watcher of HGTV will tell you, the Christmas decorations at the White House are donated and they are put up by volunteers. The ornaments on one tree were completely made by the children of America’s fighting men and women. Gotta hate that.
Y’all, let me know when you get some more of these emails about the Obama administration banning Christmas trees at the White House.
Thanks to Kyle for the heads up.
To quote a great woman, it’s always gotta be somethin’!
1Once you realize…… nothing you can do is going to be enough, or it’s going to be too much…..
Then you go about the business of doing what you have to do.
Or, hey, what’s best for the entire country. It’s taking some time, but I think Obama is slowly getting to that point.
2Since I don’t watch the TV, I gotta say thanks to Juanita Jean for waving The Truth in front of us. And re: doing what you have to do, that’s what mothers have always done. Yeah Moms.
3Yep. Damned if they do; damned if they don’t.
4Those are probably pagan trees anyway. I’ll bet the Obama’s have some human sacrifices scheduled for the solstice.
I nominate Boehner.
5“WALTERS …magnificent. How many trees?
MRS. BUSH…. I think there are 49 trees in the whole house, just decorated with snow and tinsel and bright lights. But isn’t it beautiful?”

The RWs make me want to puke!!!!!!
6Don’t leave cantor and mcconell out!
7Lynn–if we did it on a Twelve Days of Christmas basis, we could come up with a slew of ’em…
8Foil the whole bunch of negative naybobs – buy a White House Christmas ornament. A new ornament inspired from White House history is created each year. There are some still left from earlier administrations of the past couple of decades.
Scroll down to see them all…

9I believe EVERY President and First Lady have had a multitude of Christmas trees up and decorated … hmmm … I do believe I can recall Jackie Kennedy doing a little tour through each room, showing off their beautifully decorated trees … no rhubarbs about that nor Babs Bush, nor Laura … so all of the raspberries are bestowed upon the Obama’s for sticking to the age-old tradition of decorating the White House to the nines for the holidays!!
I saw to all the naysayers … bah humbug to you and may all the needles fall off your tree!!
10The more the merrier! And this will be a Merry Christmas now that the Obama’s can decorate as many White House trees as they want and call them any ole thing they want. Elections have consequences.
11My mother would have said that all these naysayers don’t have nearly enough trouble in their lives . . . . too much time on their hands. It’s just envy speaking. The Obamas are a delightful couple with brilliant minds, two charming daughters, an adorable dog, and a big house to decorate for all of us to see and enjoy. My God, think what it would be like to have to look at Boehner’s sour countenance or McCain’s cheeky puss at a celebration of any kind ! Either one of them could turn wine into vinegar with one glance. And Mitch McConnell is the Eeyore of Congress. Nothing could please that man! That stupid little smile he wears sets my teeth on edge. Wouldn’t it be a great day in this country if every one of them was voted out of office by a happy, smart, upbeat, creative and genuinely caring young Democrat?
12I have always said if Obama crapped gold the republicans would complain about him flooding the market.
13I give up.
14Good Lord, it’s Fixednews again. If there are Christmas decorations, the Obamas OBVIOUSLY spent too much tax-payer money (not). If they put up one lousy “Charlie Brown ratty-looking tree,” then they’re muslims. There’s absolutely nothing the First Family can do to make it okay with Fox or the crazies, because (dog whistle here), the First Family is black, racist, socialist, muslim, communist, elite, fascist…and (dog whistle again), well, *black*. No way to win here. Stay tuned to Fox.
15Th same good bidness folks at Investors.com, who look askance at the profligate expense on Christmas trees, surely objected even more strongly to George W spending money on a war while reducing the revenue needed to pay for it.
16One of my relations told me (NOT joking) to hurry up and buy myself some Christmas decorations because the Obama Administration is going to outlaw Christmas.
1754 trees. How many presents for me? Obama as President for 4 more years is enough.
