I choose the winning side! Merry Christmas!
No kidding! A plastic lighted snowman, reindeer and sleigh in a federal courthouse. How tacky!
I believe these instances of eliminating Christmas and the mention of Christ are blown out of proportion. My husband's job requires that he travel all day. He mentioned just this morning, he's never seen more decorations, declarations of Merry Christmas, and celebrations of Christ's birth than he has this year.
It's like after 9-11. Every house flew the flag!
I have noticed the same thing. Are we seeing an old traditional grassroots movement expanding?
In the past people in this conservative area would say "I hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas" before Christmas. Then on Christmas Day "Merry Christmas" would be heard.
This year I hear " Merry CHRISTmas ". People seem to be very deliberate in how it pronounced.
This morning United States Senator Jim Talent ( R - Missouri ) was on local talk radio live. As he and the host David Vincent Jericho were ending their conversation Senator Talent was very deliberate when he said "Merry Christmas".
Could it be that many people across the country are making a special point in their holiday greetings?
Thanks to FR and many others I think this is happening.
