There are plenty of blondes in Israel. The added security checks are just for white women, children, the elderly, and handicapped individuals. You know, to show how biased they are not. |

Salvation Army bell ringer hit for saying 'Happy Holidays' instead of 'Merry Christmas'
PHOENIX —
Apparently, a Phoenix woman is focusing too much on the messaging of Christmas versus the message of Christmas.
A Salvation Army bell ringer says she was hit by the unidentified Grinch because the suspect became upset when she was greeted with a "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas!"
ABC15.com reports volunteer Kristina Vindiola was hit while working outside a local Walmart.
Vindiola says at first she thought the woman was going to give her a donation, but instead she gave her a punch in the arm, "She came up to me and said, 'Do you believe in God?' And she says, ‘You're supposed to say Merry Christmas,' and that's when she hit me."
Vindiola went inside the store and told a store manager what happened. He then called police, but after viewing the store's surveillance video investigators were unable to find enough evidence to make an arrest.
Vindiola says she plans to take her own legal action against the woman she alleges attacked her.
Salvation Army representatives told ABC15 that the organization does not have a policy regarding whether its ringers should say "Merry Christmas" or Happy Holidays." |

the pope told me that jesus should be a capitalist or a capitalist should be jesus or jesus should be santa or a capitalist should be santa or the easter bunny runs the stock market and the pope is crucified to make everyone a 'better' human....
bottom line:
some political/religious 'expert' told me...blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.......

You have it backwards Bumbler. The WAR ON CHRISTMAS is to keep the gullible buying and gifting, no matter how much debt they carry. Saying "happy holidays" has nothing to do with 'buying'. It's about Right Wing Promotion. |

The Real War On Christmas (FoxSnooze)
Quoted Text
The “war on Christmas” that Fox News pretends is going on every year is one of those things that liberals, I think, feel widely guilty about watching with fascination, even to mock it. Like we fear that we’re feeding the beast somehow by even acknowledging the stunningly dishonest hysteria about the entirely mythical attempts to keep people from enjoying Christmas. But I personally can’t help being fascinated by it, because it’s possibly the most rock solid evidence there is that the folks at Fox News are motivated primarily by cynicism.
They know there’s no “war on Christmas”, but they will invent one because they know that they and the Republican party profit handsomely off keeping their paranoid, gullible, aging white audience in a constant fit of self-righteous outrage. Their audience is desperate to be told that they are “oppressed” by the fact that other people exist and believe that they deserve to be treated as full human beings, when the Fox audience thinks it’s obvious that everyone else should run around apologizing for not being a straight, white, conservative Christian.
And even though that’s a lie—an obvious lie—Fox News will happily feed them an endless stream of blatantly lies and misleading stories to justify their completely unjustifiable belief that they are entitled to be treated like they’re inherently better and more important than everyone else.

The war on Christmas is real, Santa was shot and it was caught on tape, this is not a joke police are looking for the shooter.
