The War on Christmas: New Allies
I am pleased to announce that the War on Christmas has turned the corner. It turns out that we have a lot in common with Santa. He has been a constant source of irritation for those that would want less commercialism at Christmastime. We have found common ground with him and have forged a treaty with the “Northern Alliance.” We feel that with his global reach and advanced technology, Christmas should fall by the end of the month.
Santa has already agreed to change his signature “Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night” to a more pleasing “Happy Holidays to all and to all a good night.”
As part of the agreement, we will push for “Silver Bells” to replace “Away in the Manger” at all caroling events.

I for one am distributing fake handicapped placards so those seeking more commercialism may park their fighting vehicles at the very door of the supply depots.
Here is some festive War On Christmas music, with a rather excellent logo:

Reporting from the front.
What has my attention during this most holy of seasons is the war between those saying ‘Happy Holidays’ and those demanding that ‘Merry Christmas’ is the only acceptible greeting during Saturnalia. I got an email paradoy on ‘Twas the Night Before…..’ that went from the ‘HH’ vs ‘MC’ to prayer in schools!!!!!! Who thinks up this crap?
FYI: It is, afterall, a pagan holiday….historical evidence points to the Christ child being born in July. The pagans liked to party and wouldn’t give up some aspects of the winter festival so the crafty christians incorporated them within the story they wanted to tell (or should I say ‘sell’?).
My point (yes, I have a point) is that I believe ‘Happy Holidays’ more in keeping with a culti-cultural society.
that would be ‘multi-cultural society’….
HAHAHAHA but culti-cultural works sooooo well with the war on Christmas
ANNON II
The Pagans stole Christmas from us. Only our Santa was a chubby women with giants breasts.
