Obaman plans to have a fundraiser near Rockefeller Center the same day as the Christmas Tree lighting ceremony. Trump rips him for this because of the inconvenience it will cause for the people who will come to see the lighting.

This was spot on!

The Obama Regime imposes a Christmas Tree tax

The Obama Regime is looking for powers to circumvent Congress. One example is the Agriculture Dept. imposing 15 cent charge on all new fresh Christmas Trees.

President Obama’s Agriculture Department today announced that it will impose a new 15-cent charge on all fresh Christmas trees—the Christmas Tree Tax—to support a new Federal program to improve the image and marketing of Christmas trees.

In the Federal Register of November 8, 2011, Acting Administrator of Agricultural Marketing David R. Shipman announced that the Secretary of Agriculture will appoint a Christmas Tree Promotion Board.  The purpose of the Board is to run a “program of promotion, research, evaluation, and information designed to strengthen the Christmas tree industry’s position in the marketplace; maintain and expend existing markets for Christmas trees; and to carry out programs, plans, and projects designed to provide maximum benefits to the Christmas tree industry” (7 CFR 1214.46(n)).  And the program of “information” is to include efforts to “enhance the image of Christmas trees and the Christmas tree industry in the United States” (7 CFR 1214.10).

I guess Christmas trees are considered Rich by Obama.
