Obama Removes Christ From Christmas Tree… Inserts Himself
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, December 20, 2011, 5:20 AM
The first National Christmas Tree was placed on the Ellipse south of the White House in December 1923. The tree was a 48-foot Balsam fir donated by the President of Middlebury College in Vermont. At 5 p.m. on Christmas Eve, President Calvin Coolidge walked from the White House to the Ellipse to light the tree from his native state. But that was back in 1923. This year there were no ornaments about Christ… just Obama.
The first National Christmas Tree was placed near the White House in 1923.
The Obama Administration removed Christ from the National Christmas Tree this year… But the ornaments do pay homage to Obama.
CNS News reported:
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.
On the north side of the tree–at a height of about 4 feet and easily visible to people standing near it—there is an ornament that says: “I ♥ President Obama.”
When asked whether the tree included any ornaments that mention or depict Christmas or the birth of Jesus, the office of the Architect of the Capitol, which is responsible for the tree, told CNSNews.com that it “does not have a policy nor any restrictions concerning the themes for the ornaments” that go on the tree. The office could not say, however, whether or not this year’s Christmas tree does in fact include even a single ornament that directly references or depicts Christmas or Christ.

Well what did you expect from our Muslim, queer, Indonesian Maxium Leader Obama? He claims he is the 4th greatest president in American history!
Joe Blow commented:
I would bet it doesn’t have a single ornament referring to the real reason for Christmas. Wouldn’t want to show partiality towards Christians now would we.
Who authorized Fast & Furious? commented:
Everything the regime does is geared toward an election. They are in a permanent election mode. I would say everything else is secondary, but there is nothing else.
This fits into a small part of the election strategy. The personality cult angle.
There is a select bloc of cultists whose loyalty is reinforced from time to time.
This is for them.

The “I didn’t see nothin’” administration keeps up the good work.
dba...vagabond trader commented:
The “peoples tree” how appropriate for a commie monument.
Lady Mondegreen commented:
Is anypne surprised? And considering that the tradition of the Christmas tree is of completely pagan origins, it all seems somehow appropriate.

Obama and Ron Paul are hardline Communists/Nazis with a messiah complex.

Our President is the gift that keeps on giving.
BarbaAZ commented:
It was known quite some time ago that the obama’s do not celebrate Christmas and do not give presents to each other as is the Christmas tradition. Why should they, especially since they are Muslims or at the very least Muslim tools! That is also why they spend the Christmas season vacationing in Hawaii away from D.C. Any articles about what they do on Christmas, etc. are purely propaganda spin to fool or assuage Christians. obama is The Grand Kenyan…One of the 7 great BLUNDERS of the world!
dfbaskwill commented:
It’s as if he is “on the other side”. This is a constant theme with oBumbles. He is on the other side of every issue America stands for. Too bad that includes America itself.

Islam and obama – every day some new and unbelieveable report comes out.
#1AMERICAN commented:
biggest POS to ever be in the whitehouse…mooslime and his chewbacca ugly wife probably going to have halal mooslum meal for xmas
Sasja commented:
I think this tree is from Calfornia and schrool children from there made most of the ornaments. It’s an ugly tree no matter who is responsble for its ornamentation. I noticed in one pic, it does lean towards to the left.
Sasja commented:
good grief. Now who would write “lean towards to the left”. Why tis I. Should read, “it does lean toward the left”.
lizzy84 commented:
There is an ornament that says: “I ♥ pResident oBama.”
How much do you want to bet that he put the ornament there himself?
President Puke.
HadEnough commented:
I have some Christmas balls @ssclown #1 can hold…….
tadcf commented:
By the way, the Christmas tree–as well as the date of Christmas–was taken from a pagan holiday, since there was no historical date of birth for the Jesus in the myth.
MWTexas commented:
Every time the White House does something now, it is only and purely to serve the One. If he wants to replace Christ for Christmas, when are they goiing to nail him to a cross?
I’ll be there with bells on.
Hangtown Bob commented:
So………. How many police/Secret Service are stationed around the tree to prevent removal of said Obama ornament??????

David commented:
Attention Barack Obama, the Franking Commission, and any other enemy of the church: You can no more remove Jesus from his birthday than separate warmth from the sun. If you are that arrogant to believe that by attempting to silence Christianity, you will eventually destroy the church..you are even more clueless than anyone could have ever possibly fathomed. Have fun with your endeavor..Lucifer attempted to take over Heaven, Rameses attempted to slaughter every first born Israelite, and Herod attempted to find the the Infant Jesus..”I will crush Him under my foot like a young scorpion”…I guess that proved unsuccessful as well.
Adi commented:
The malignant narcissist and personality cultist really feels the need to be told how loved He is. After all, it is all about Him.
Timpundit commented:
God, you people are retarded.
The States themselves decide what theme the xmas tree will have, and what kind of ornaments to send, not Obama, not the White House, the STATES. And there is over 2000 ornaments, you telling me CNS examined all of them?
I know you guys are tea-tarded and are blinded by hatred for the first black President but aren’t you tired of being the nation’s laughingstocks? Probably not.
Thankfully the vast majority of you are old and cranky white and undereducated. The comet is coming, dinosaurs, the comet is coming. Rest in peace.
Tony commented:
you people are truly pathetic. do you ever go back and read your hate filled ignorant comments and realize how stupid you are. this is what the problem in our country today is, hate filled ignorance. happy hanukkah!!! have fun at your parties with your white pointy hats and covered faces because you are too stupid or too embarassed to let others see who you really are. be proud of who you are and what you do but, in your cases cover your face and be ashamed because there is nothing to be proud of. LOSERS!!!!!

You know rage, envy and failure isn’t something that looks good on a resume. Nor does being Obama’s butt boy.
While you’re at it, yes I will have fries with my order.
And a Merry Xmas to the Dear Maximum Commissar and the Moocheelle Wookie and all the little red diaper leemings.

What’s it like to be so easily mentally manipulated that you project on to conservatives the typical Progressive hateful/dishonest/violent behavior documented daily on the internet and yet cannot understand how the Great Odogma’s destructive policies are the cause of the dissatisfaction and resentment? Free your mind Obot! Or stay stooopid………….

“the office of the Architect of the Capitol”
Huh!… Oh, “Architect”. For some reason, I read that as, “the office of the Antichrist of the Capitol,” the first time through.

RKflorida commented:
Taking Christ away from the tree doesn’t bother me at all, since the tree is an occult symbol. Obama putting himself on it does bother me as it shows his phenomenal arrogance – once again.

“it is important for Western countries to avoid impeding

that Obama?? /s/

dunce commented:
Muslim socialists do not celebrate the birth of Christ. As usual with obamasiah it is all about him.
MamaGrizzly commented:
Actually, St. Boniface, Orthodox Saint, put an end to the pagan infant sacrifices under a bad tree in Scandinavia. When nothing happened the people received the Gospel and were told to take the evergreen trees into their homes and light them as a testimony to the Light of the World.
So I really like Christmas trees . . . there also just plain fun.
Hey–didn’t the Obamas put a bunch of Mao ornaments on the WH tree last time?
MamaGrizzly commented:
BTW Obama is NOT the “first BLACK president.” He is of mixed race: he’s the first BLACK AND WHITE president.
He has absolutely NOTHING to do with the real black experience in America.
Alan Keyes was on the level. Condi Rice was on the level.
Obama is just a tool.
MamaGrizzly commented:
Justice Thomas. Alan West.
JOHN commented:
AMAZED THAT SO MANY OBJECT TO SOMEONE THEY DO NOT BELIEVE IN “JESUS”. SOME ARE JUST DUM OR STUPID. HOWEVER I KNOW THAT EVERY KNEE WILL BOW BEFORE IT IS OVER, BUT THAT WILL NOT BE TO obama. WHEN JESUS RETURNS JUST WATCH AND SEE. I PRAY FOR OUR GOV ALL THE TIME. IF WE PRAYED AS MUCH AS WE COMPLAIN THERE WOULD BE A CHANGE IN AMERICA. MERRY CHRIST-MAS.
Jim Hayden commented:
What do people expect? He had to be told about Christmas last year. He is totally clueless about Christianity.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR.

Steve Cakouros commented:
Obama’s policies are not Christian. That is what counts.
His policies are not Christian because religion is to him what it was to Aaron Burr and Thomas jefferson, a tool for getting elected.
Tammy commented:
Why do you people love to spread lies? Americans have all kinds of themed trees that often have nothing to do with Christ. The White House Christmas trees prior to the Obama administration were not Christian themed. The official White House Christmas tree (and yes, they call it a Christmas tree…quit being lazy and believing everything you read and do a quick google search) is in honor of our American military families. Is that so evil? I’m sure most of you will twist it to look like it is because your asinine rationale is that anything the obama’s have done is evil. Fight political policies you disagree with, but stop making complete fools of yourselves with these ignorant tales.
Arc commented:
Are you kidding?
As a kid, my Christmas tree was covered with glass bulbs, lights, garland, tinsel, and stuff that
my brother and I had made in school. It was still a christmas tree, despite the fact that none of the ornaments said anything about Jesus.
For thar matter, what does a pine tree covered with crap have to do with Christianity anyway?
Nothing. That tradidtion dates back to pagan rituals in northern europe that celebrated the winter solstice.
Arc commented:
Here you go, kids.
