  • Happy Christmas To the Obamas and The United States!

  • Mrs Obama was reading "Twas the Night Before Christmas"

    He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,

    And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.

    But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight,

    "Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"

  • happy holidays.. :)

    

  • I live next to people who have a christmas tree bigger than that!

  • Back? I think we're lost in tranlation. Back from where? LOL

    I have a question. Why is it that when the Obama's go out on a date, light a Christmas tree, or anything else they can afford to do, you all say "I wonder how much the tax payer is paying for that? What? Do you think they're poor?

  • what I mean is CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL ,hey are you back ?

  • I agree AfreeQueen; I don't have a paranoid feeling regarding everyday usage of the said," phrase" by Obama or Clinton. Just concern, of what the politicians (named),mentioned, when making a deal with Russia(Medeave). Besides, I thought we were talking about the Lighting of the Christmas Tree and, how beautiful it is. Merry Christmas!

  • My television doesn' t have a "switch" , it has buttons. If you're going to attach a paranoid feeling to someone saying "push the button", when everyone in this country says it at least 20,000 times a day , there is something wrong.

  • My lights are very useful & beuatiful in the summertime as patio laterns! Only I have to switch them on,I normally, don't push the button! (;-)

  • Merry Christmas to one &all!

  • Yesterday, I told one of my daughters to push the button on the tv to turn it off. Was that a buzz word? And I'm finding it really sarcastic of you to tell me "Happy Holidays" because it's said that liberals don't believe in Christmas let alone say Merry Christmas (as Obama just did). So MERRY CHRISTMAS, phfrank. And take those lights down before my birthday..Feb 1. Really don't want to see Santa during President's Day and Black History Month.

  • AfreeQueen: I was merely sharing the History of the Christmass Tree, of that being ,"originally a German Tradition"

    What "tre'ed me off" was the "buzz" word expressed by Obama as well as Senator Clinton at another time, with regards to "pressin the button".. it sounded to me like a political phrase among "world leaders"

    Incidentally I leave my Christmas lights up all year round and light them on occasion.

    Merry Christmass or should I say Happy Holidays! one& all!
