Michelle Obama and the War on Christmas

[ClydeR]

Sadly, it appears that our soon-to-be First Lady has joined the side of the secular progressives (aka SPs) in the War on Christmas (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_on_christmas). She sent an e-mail, which you can read on Obama's website (http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/stateupdates/gGx8KT), referring to the "holiday season" but not mentioning Christmas at all. In the e-mail, she suggests a number of charitable activities in which people can participate during the "holidays." What we need to do with our "holidays," instead of trying to destroy Christmas, is demand that retailers who want our holiday dollars greet us properly when we enter their stores with "Merry Christmas" and use the word "Christmas" prominently in their advertising.

Bill O'Reilly has been covering this issue for several years on his teevee program. John Gibson has a whole book on the subject, "The War on Christmas: How the Liberal Plot to Ban the Sacred Christian Holiday Is Worse Than You Thought."

Instead of spending your "holidays" the way liberals like Michelle Obama want you to, I think you should devote your precious time to conservative activism to make the nation better.

Instead of spending your "holidays" the way liberals like Michelle Obama want you to, I think you should devote your precious time to conservative activism to make the nation better.Or spend your holidays wasting everyone's time with universally reviled posts.

Yes, it would be much wiser of her to potentially alienate agnostics, atheists, muslims, jews, and pastafarians.

You forgot festivus.For the rest of us.

You forgot festivus.

I'm familiar with Festivus (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8g4Ztf7hIM), and so is Bill O'Reilly. He and Dennis Miller addressed that subject in a recent airing of O'Reilly's show on the teevee.


O'REILLY: Finally, Festivus in Washington may be now allowed to put up a sign, whatever that may be, take it from "Seinfeld." Your analysis, please?

MILLER: Well, this is what happens when you open the idiot floodgates. And this is what they're going to get now. And I find it amazingly ironic that atheism has turned into such a strident, lachrymose religion. Where's the sense of humor up there, guys?

You know what's happening, Bill, this is what we're seeing, and it's a contagional start in the northwest and move down. The official aggrieved minority in this country now is the majority, and that's not going to work. Eventually, that's going to have to change. Somebody is going to have to stand up and say enough is enough. Although I thought the sign next to the Nativity scene made the Nativity scene look much more authentic, because I thought the cow had come out of the manger and dropped one on the floor.

O'REILLY: Well, there is quite a contrast between the sign and the message of Jesus, and I think that's the only good thing that comes out of this.

Christmas, and one day of presents is for losers.

Hanukkah, with multiple days of gift giving is where it's at.

[Clove]

Ah, Dennis Miller, that champion of Christmas and American family values.

[Methais]

Fuck everybody. I'm offended at myself.

But you just get a dreidel (http://www.southparkstudios.com/clips/103389/) as a gift, don't you?

[Belnia]

Trolls burn with fire. Hanukkah candles are lots of fire. Burn the troll!

[diethx]

Hanukkah sucks when compared to Christmas. I mean, believe in whatever you want to believe in. But when we're considering holiday fun, Christmas pwns the everloving fuck out of Hanukkah.
