Did anyone notice?

Our great Governor just declared that the tree in the Capital building is no longer a Christmas Tree, it's a Holiday Tree.

 

Thanks, I feel so much more secure now that you clarified that.

What's next!

[DesertBull]

What's next!

 

Since you asked----

 

Santa now banned from saying Ho Ho Ho. It is offensive to women!?!?!

 

 

Wouldn't it only be offensive, if he calling was you a ho ho ho?

[tinaz]

Someone help me here, I'm dense.

 

I grew up with the understanding Christmas was a Christian holiday, a day set aside for the observance of the birth of Jesus Christ. How did Christmas evolve into what is celebrated today?

 

It's politically incorrect to even use the word Christmas?? It's a holiday tree?? Holiday for what?

 

There something wrong with this society.

[jamaro]

How did a tree get associated with the birth of baby Jesus???

 

While do we, Beaners, name our kids Jesus but you never see white kids named Jesus????

This is the start of the politically correct holiday era

 

So HAPPY CHRISTMAHANNAKWANZA everybody!!!

[curmudgen]

Who cares what's politically correct. That doesn't seem to be much of an issue on this site unless it's really offensive. So--MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL

Funny this topic should come up, I got this email yesterday.........guess it is Christmas time!!!

 

 

 

There will be no Nativity Scene in the United State Congress this year !

 

The Supreme Court has ruled that there cannot be a Nativity Scene

in the United States capital this Christmas season.

 

This isn't for any religious reason, they simply have not been able to

find three wise men and a virgin in the Nation's capitol.

 

There was no problem, however, finding enough asses to fill the stable.

[elpepe25]

that is awesome

[mattys281]

Just another example of the majority getting hosed by a vocal few who can't shut the heck up & look the other way when they see something they don't like. Welcome to the United States of Liberalism. Holiday Tree.... don't suppose he (our Governor) specified which holiday it was for?

[Lance]

Well, You won't find me bending with the wind! As fo me and My Home we will serve the Lord! United we stand because in God we trust! And We wish a verry BIG Merry CHRISTmass to you and yours!

About 15 years ago we were living in a house that only had a fireplace for heat.....we were freezing out butts off...so we decided to go to Alpine for Christmas, haven't missed a year since. My dads summer home is nice and cozy and warm. We cut down a real live tree, thread the popcorn and cranberries....put out the manger scene, read from the good book on Christmas eve.....watch The Christmas Story.........oh man, I can hardly wait...........one of the true favorite times of the year with the family.....

I go this in am email as i was reading through this particular thread and it pretty much sums it all up:

 

hout Merry Christmas!!!

 

 

 

'Twas the month before Christmas when all through our land,

Not a Christian was praying nor taking a stand.

Why the PC Police had taken away,

The reason for Christmas - no one could say.

 

The children were told by their schools not to sing,

About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.

It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say

December 25th is just a " Holiday ".

Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit

Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!

CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-pod

Something was changing, something quite odd!

 

Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa

In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda.

As Targets are hanging their trees upside down

At Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found.

 

At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears

You won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears.

Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-si-ty

Are words t hat w ere used to intimidate me.

 

Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen

On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton !

At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter

To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.

 

And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith

 

Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace

The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded

The reason for the season, stopped before it started.

 

So as you celebrate "Winter Break" under your "DreamTree"

Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.

Choose your words carefully, choose what you say

Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS, not Happy Holiday !

I also heard that she was going to push into effect a bill that would mandate medical coverage to those who have "Life Partners" because that is only fair.....

What ever happened to the man / women unity called marriage as the only legal means of covering your spouse??? We might as well get used to it, we are already paying taxes into social security that a portion of will be be used by the federal government to pay benefits to illegal immigrants that have not paid a penny towards of there own money.....
