Obama's release their first Christmas card in two years...can you say "Election"....

Funny how "tradition" is far more appealing on election cycles...

The First Family is all smiles in their Christmas-themed family portrait card which was released Thursday, continuing their recent string of holiday-related appearances.

The Obamas are shown sitting hand in hand in the Oval Office, with Michelle and Malia leaning in to one another while Sasha rest on her father's knee.

Even though Mr Obama has been president for the past three years, this is only their second family portrait, having skipped the tradition last year.

Congressmen can't say 'Merry Christmas' in mail.....

"Currently, incidental use of the phrase Happy Holidays is permissible but Merry Christmas is not," said Salley Wood.

So it's true, the elected representatives of the nation that puts "In God We Trust" on its currency are not permitted to use the greeting that has likely been uttered by every living adult American at least once in their lifetimes.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio: 'Don't ... use me as a whipping boy'.....

Sheriff Joe for President!!!!

Sheriff Joe Arpaio said Thursday he would cooperate “the best we can” with demands for changes to his Phoenix-based department, which federal prosecutors said had illegally arrested Latinos, abused them in the county jails and failed to properly investigate hundreds of reported sex crimes.

But Arpaio, whose national prominence is partly due to his pugnacious nature, added: “And if they are not happy, I guess they can carry out their threat and go to federal court.”

‘Indefinite Detention’ Bill Heads To Obama’s Desk As White House Drops Veto Threat.......

I think this should give people pause.....alot of pause.......

UPDATE: Obama has dropped his threat to veto the bill and is now expected to sign it into law. Remember – it was Obama’s White House that demanded the law apply to U.S. citizens in the first place.

The bill which would codify into law the indefinite detention without trial of American citizens is about to be passed and sent to Obama’s desk to be signed into law, even as some news outlets still erroneously report that the legislation does not apply to U.S. citizens.
