If you read my original post, then the last paragraph of the snope' s article, there is no contradiction. I agree with you, the very idea would be preposterous, I even stated that I was unsure about the truth of it. But *preposterous* would be par for the course for his administration. You are the one that brings up "Obama is not American, yada yada yada." Even Anne thought it was a great idea. LOL!

Both your posts on this were wildly misleading.
The very notion of Obama changing Thanksgiving Day to Immigrants Day is preposterous, but it fits smoothly into the anti-Obama nonsense that the far right indulges in all the time: Obama is not an American, therefore he does not revere Thanksgiving like all good Americans do, and he wants to change it to Immigrants day because he is sympathetic to the flood of illegals that are pouring in and ruining this once-great country of ours, and is of course an immigrant himself (and an illegal one, too). ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mdixon.6569@...> wrote : You might re-read my original post.
