The real war on Christmas

It's actually being waged by Bill O'Reilly and other right-wingers. I should know: It almost ruined my family's holiday dinner.

    You're not the only one

    Boy, you really nailed this one . . .

    I, too, can no longer have any meaningful conversations

    with my ultra-conservative father these days. I don't know

    what is worse - the simplistic black and white philosophy

    (Business - good, Government - bad), or the accusation that

    any critism, not matter how small, of current Republican

    political or economic policy is some kind of giant leap toward

    Communism. I've got the solution - I don't even go home for

    Christmas any more. We can talk about the weather over the

    phone or via e-mail. Thank God for the internet!
