I feel the same way... It's still "Happy Holidays" for me and too bad for all the PC Word Police who try to
force Christmas on the rest of us.


The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

Corporate America has seen fit to bombard us even before Thanksgiving with all the pomp and circumstance.

Every year it gets earliler and earlier.....and for each Holiday too

America is losing traditions.....and it won't belong when it will be ONE big holiday combining all holidays.

So advertising will be 365 days a year.......glad I won't be around to take part......LOL

PLEASE LET THE HAMPSTER LIVE......

There's a reason Christmas is a Federal Holiday.....I dont see ANYWHERE in the bible/koran/old/new testaments/ or even those other books left out by everyone but the catholics about the government making it a holiday...

do we really think god said SHOP AT 10PM THANKSGIVING TO GET GOOD DEALS AND YOU GET TO SIT NEXT TO ST.PETER?????

we have allowed ourselves to be turned into hampsters that run this stupid wheel of credit/$$ etc for crap.....I mean if you call christmas the holiday for gifts...GO AHEAD......if you call christmas a religious observance then dont buy the gifts

it's a money machine and always has been just like the Vatican......

CRAP.....the hampster got loose....excuse me, the bonfire is ready and all I need is the hampster......'salutations to all and to all a good wheel run'...... from the Hampster Holiday.....

We have one of those pre-lit fake trees and have for years. It always seemed kinda stupid to us, for folks to grow a tree, chop it down, sell it, use it for 1-2 weeks and then throw it out! It just seems like a waste of money.

We do like the smell of a fresh cut pine tree, so we will usually buy a fresh wreath and hang it in the house.
