narcimund 0 #1 December 15, 2006 The extreme partisan right spends 10 times as much energy complaining about absolutely superficial issues surrounding christmas than they do actually celebrating it. They converted their hero's birthday into a strawman argument against their political rivals. The noise became their main event. The rest of us didn't really notice because we were too busy celebrating christmas, but the whining is finally drowning out the last little bit of tradition. Christmas is dead.

billvon 2,471 #4 December 15, 2006 Haven't you heard? There's a WAR ON CHRISTMAS! Christians get a state-sponsored holiday to celebrate the birth of their God, but THEY are the victims here! After all, companies like Sears, Crate and Barrel etc have but one purpose - destroy christmas. All that talk about making money is just a smoke screen for their real satanic plans.

narcimund 0 #5 December 15, 2006 All I know is the religious right wing sure does whine and moan a lot. Every time someone privately expresses a personal freedom, they complain! And they sure do need a lot of validation from their government for their own religious beliefs, don't they? Maybe they think they can't go to heaven if the US government doesn't approve their Holy Passport. First Class Citizen Twice Over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
