War on Christmas.

NOTICE TO SMART SHOPPERS:

These companies have banned "Christmas" from their retail ads, in-store promotions or television commercials.

Please take time to let them know you are offended by their anti-Christian and anti-Christmas bias. Their contact information is below.

We cannot stress to strongly how important it is for you to be firm, yet very kind in your correspondence with these companies. Please be respectful and choose your words wisely.

In addition, companies marked with an asterisk* have gone so far as to substitute the phrase "Holiday or Dream trees" instead of "Christmas trees" in their promotions. (O NO!!)

SHOP SMART!

So apparently shopping at Target makes me a Christmas hater. Conservative morons... should deport themselves to Iran and join Ahmadinejad in denying the existence of the Holocaust.

Who cares?

Your still filling their pockets.

Merry Chri$tma$! :rolleyes:

Here is a principal being sued because she wrote \'christmas holidays\' and \'christmas season\' in the school newsletter, upwards of 10 times!

Political correctness is incompatible with free speech. Time to choose one or the other, and then people can just QUIT WHINING ABOUT BEING OFFENDED.

It\'s stupid.
I hate the holidays, but you know what, let people enjoy them. Just ignore \'em if you don\'t celebrate it.

Friggin\' ignorant. If nothing else, let the kids enjoy the holidays. Hell, I will let me kids celebrate them (which , by the way, will be born via c-section in 9 days!).

Serioulsy though. That is so retarded. Instead of saying Merry Christmas, its Happy Holidays. I guess those conservatives never heard of Kwanza and Hanukah and that they fall at a similar time :rolleyes:

Your twins will be born on the 19th?

Kwanzaa is about as much a holiday as scientology is a religion.

Kwanza a holiday?  :lmao:

See how you have been brainwashed by the PC crowd Titan?

Kwanza is a creation to make certain people feel better about themselves.  It has no historical context as a holiday.

To some people its a holiday. Its as much a holiday as Mothers Day. Both have no historical context, just made up. But Kwanza is BS and I don\'t get it.

Isn\'t Christmas a government holiday?  Hmmm.....

It is. Strange that Channukah isnt.

Kwanzaa, wikipedia.org

Kwanzaa is a week-long holiday observance held from December 26 to January 1 honoring African-American heritage, primarily in the United States. Timed to serve as an alternative to the growing commercialism of Christmas, it was founded in 1966 by Ron Karenga (Ron Everett). Whatever its original intent, Kwanzaa has captured the imagination of many in the African-American community and has increasingly become an important celebration.

...

Kwanzaa is not a religious holiday, but a cultural one, a syncretic festival, based on various elements of the first harvest celebrations widely celebrated in Africa, around the 10th month of the year. According to a survey conducted by the National Retail Foundation in October 2004, 1.6% of consumers celebrate Kwanzaa.

...

Kwanzaa can be seen to be celebrated in the third series of the sentai drama "Power Rangers" when Aisha holds a holiday festival for the citizens of Angel Grove.

For the rest of us:

Shit, I think they deserve something to feel better about themselves after all we\'ve done to them Giga. Kwanzaa\'s a start.

There\'s nothing PC about simply respecting other people\'s cultures.

All I have to say about different holidays is \'who cares\'. Let people celebrate whatever holiday they want if its real, new or a family tradition or made up like Festivus and we should respect people\'s celebrations.

Christmas isn\'t even a Christian holiday anymore. A lot of people celebrate it as a more cultural holiday. I mean what do trees and presents have to do with the birth of Jesus? Its become more cultural than anything.

Oh really?  What have I done to "them"?  Once you stop acting like a victim or treating them like victims - you/they may actually succeed in life.

As for African American heritage - they have the whole damn month of February for that.  Next you are going to want reparations from the government right?  Never gonna happen.  By creating this farce of a holiday it makes blacks look idiotic.  Since when did Christmas exclude blacks and why do you think they need a seperate holiday?    

Oh and MLK Day shouldn\'t be a holiday either.  If the man were alive today I would bet he would be what Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are.  There are many other Americans throughout history who deserve a holiday before him.
