But Lowe’s has better fine lumber!

I needed a new supplier anyway.

(BTW, any confirmation on the truth of this?)

I do not have any confirmation of the truth of this. The link to the catalogue looks like a real catalogue so I thought it looked legit enough to post.

Here is a link to the American Family Association website that sent out the “alert.” They say that Lowe’s has contacted them and apologized for the catalogue and say that they will call them “Christmas Trees” in their fliers. But they put out the catalogue as “Family Trees” and the Daily Kos has a lovely article today saying that “Family Tree” sounds so inclusive!

Seems to me that Lowe’s is trying to have it’s anti-Christian “Family Tree” cake putting out the catalogue and eating it too by claiming that it was a “mistake.”

Their online catalog has a number of items with the word “Christmas” in the description. Just do a keyword search at lowes.com.
