I guess I'm still waiting to be offended...
No problems with what he said to me.

Too many Christians are so insecure in their faith that they feel dissed everytime anything happens in public this time of year without someone directly quoting Luke and Matthew. Atleast they don't riot and kill people because they are offended like Muslims.

Relax, that was a subject change. But of course WND prints it in a way that makes you think he was referring to Santa as the 'one humble life' (he wasn't.)

>>Why? Ramadan isn't this month.
Yes, but stores start selling the artifical ones in October.

and how woould it look if it were formatted just slightly different...
"Each year, we gather here to celebrate the season of hope and joy – and to remember the story of one humble life that lifted the sights of humanity.
"Santa, thanks for coming. Glad you made it. I know you've got a lot of commitments this time of year. By the way, we have a lot of chimneys at the White House if you're looking for something to do."
new topic, new paragraph, problem solved.

Just my beleagured opinion.

America was founded by Christian Europeans. Period.If you truly wish to be accurate, "America" was conquered by Christian Europeans. There were human inhabitants present on what is now the North and South American continents prior to Europeans arriving.

That's not a Jesus joke. That is a Santa joke. No, it's a Jesus joke. The setup makes you think it's about Jesus, the punchline takes you to Santa. He's comparing Santa, a jolly elf, to Jesus, the savior and lord.

Really. I was expecting some awful joke. Seemed to me, to be two different thoughts.. He spoke of one humble life, and then, mentioned Santa.. Whats the problem!?

WND has seemed to perfect the art of dishonest victimology, on par with Jesse Jackson.
I guess if you put 100 chips on your shoulder, sooner or later wind will knock a few off.
To: emiller
I think you are confusing Jesus with allah - AKA 'The "God" too stupid to have a sense of humor.'
To: emiller
I watched this last night.
I didn't hear the President making a joke about Jesus.
But of course if it's typed just so..
one could make it seem that way
nice way to take the light off that "poetry"...

No, it was a subject change. The pause and voice inflection aren't passed on in print. I bet the actual transcript starts a new paragraph when he begins talking about Santa.
To: Warren_Piece
Agreed.
Jesus is not worried about Santa Claus.
