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.

    the real war on xmas

    nice piece, but why take this 'war' seriously. the fascists have laid themselves wide open to ridicule with this one, and that's the one thing an alcoholic/codependent cannot tolerate.

    as for me, i work retail, and i'm an Official Saboteur Of Xmas. in the off-season, i take candy from babies and infect rats with plague, n'est-ce pas?

    these people on the "right" (actually, seriously, fascists by another name) are all about fear, and nothing confronts fear better than laughter.

    that's what mikhail bakhtin said, and was a communist!
