i am on the christmas side
the happy holiday bull
Happy Holidays everyone.
Is Christmas hiding gifts of mass destruction?
Invade, imo.
Just the annual war on Christmas, going on for how long now?
I grew up hearing 'happy holidays' as a wish for Christmas and New Year's.
It never had any meaning other than that. In fact, wishing someone 'Merry Christmas' was frowned on as it was seen as focusing on the secular side of Christmas rather than the spiritual.
All the rest of this crap is due to people trying to become victimized by something. It's ridiculous.
War on Christmas
War on Christians
Total lies to rouse the ignorant right-wing rabble
I drove through my subdivision today and saw a giant Nativity scene outside on someone's lawn, and on the side of the stable was an American Flag stuck in the ground.
I literally laughed out loud.
Wait, Jesus is an American? So the Mormons were right?
gun-fetishist, murderous, war-mongering Americans LOVE THOSE WARS!!
Fox's War on the Muppets!
Fox Host Says Muppets Are Brainwashing Children
The Muppets are a bunch of tree-hugging commies who are trying to brainwash Americans children to hate big business.
At least that’s the case according to Fox Business’ Eric Bolling, who has some corners of the Web abuzz this week after he offered a rather critical take of the Muppets’ new movie. The Follow the Money host brought the issue up last week during a segment on his show, during which he interviewed the conservative Media Research Center’s Dan Gainor. The like-minded pair took turns pointing out what they say was the movie’s, in specific, and Hollywood’s, in general, overtly partisan take on the world.
Bolling and Gainor's issues with The Muppets stems from the fact that its plot centers on the heroes' bid to prevent an evil oil tycoon -- with the less-than-nuanced name of Tex Richman -- from tearing down the Muppets’ beloved theater to drill for oil.
That narrative decision, according to Gainor, was the latest example of a Hollywood production unfairly making the oil industry the villain. After name-dropping such films as Syriana and Cars 2, he offered this take on the benefits of carbon-based fuels that he says the movie industry avoids: "None of [the movies] remind people what oil means for most people, which is fuel to light a hospital or heat your home or maybe fuel an ambulance to get you to a hospital if you need that. They don’t want to tell that story."
There’s plenty more from where that came from in the video clip (which Fox News watchdog Media Matters has here), including an attempt to tie what Bolling and Gainor see as Hollywood’s anti-corporate message to the recent Occupy Wall Street movement. (Most of the pull-quotes came from Gainor but, as you'll see in the video, Bolling clearly led the way with his questions and his own comments.)

This morning the fox and friends crew was outraged that an elementary school in California wanted to remove Pointsettas ..so much so that the ditzy blonde said that it made her so angry that she may to leave the set..
I'm scurrred CHRISTmas is going to lose this war
Hm. Has there been legislation demanding that stores say Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas?
If not, then the stores are just responding to what the consumer wants.
As always, Stewart drops a nuke:

http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/local/breakingnews/fl-...WPLG-Ch. 10 is reporting that a state senator wants the winter school break renamed to "Christmas break," even though some oppose the idea.
Sen. Stephen Wise, R-Jacksonville, part of the K-12 Committee in the Florida Senate, this week said that the term "winter break," often used by teachers to describe the school vacation period, bothers him, the station reported.
If his bill passes, the law would take effect July 1 statewide, requiring school districts to call it "Christmas Break," the station said.
You don't understand.
IT BOTHERS HIM.
Merry Christmas all
So it's a war on the Cons ution.
OK.
Happy Holidays!
This, because, believe it or not, NOT EVERYONE IS A ING CHRISTIAN, and there are other holidays around this time of year. Some, like Hannukah, have been around longer than Christmas has.
Congress has to declare war. However, how can you have a war against a holiday?
Felic Navidad muchachos!!
So it is a consensus. We cancel Christmas (happy holiday) and everyone
work if it falls on a weekday. And maybe celebrate New Year.
Oh wait, which New Year would we be celebrating and when?
No one said to cancel Christmas.
