Obama's Christmas Card Quotation
Perhaps the Best Christmas Quote of 2011 comes from President Obama's "Holiday" greeting card featuring his dog BO, which just happens to be at the center of a heated political controversy this year says the Los Angeles Times in the Thursday edition.
Obama's Christmas Card Quote: "From our family to yours, may your holidays shine with the light of the season," read the inside of the card, featuring the presidential seal, the Business Insider reports.
Sarah Palin Christmas Quote: She told Fox News that she found it "odd" that the card featured their dog Bo rather than the cores of the holiday: "family, faith and freedom." Americans, she added, want "American foundational values illustrated and displayed on Christmas cards and on a Christmas tree."
