'Twas the Month Before Christmas!
Unknown

Posted on 11/26/2007 8:11:31 PM PST by topher

'Twas the month before Christmas when all through our land,

Not a Christian was praying nor taking a stand.
Why the PC Police had taken away,
The reason for Christmas - no one could say.

The children were told by their schools not to sing,
About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.
It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say

December 25th is just a " Holiday ".

Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit

Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!
CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-pod
Something was changing, something quite odd!

Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa
In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda.
As Targets are hanging their trees upside down

At Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found.

At K-Mart and Staples and Penney's and Sears

You won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears.
Inclusive, sensitive, di-ver-si-ty Are words that were used to intimidate me.

Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen
On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton !
At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.

And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith
Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace
The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded
The reason for the season, stopped before it started.

So as you celebrate "Winter Break" under your "Dream Tree"

Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me...

Choose your words carefully, choose what you say

Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS , not Happy Holiday!

At least they still light the Christmas tree at the White House each year...

I received an email that about this on that date.

I am not sure the source of this for that person but probably another email.

Do you know the origin?

The one you refer to has politically correct police versus PC police in this one...

Don't even recall where I got it, but I had it for a few days before posting it Monday (in my Today's Toons ping which contains written humor on Mondays). BTW, someone else posted it after the 2 of us.
