Some how I have serious doubts that WalMart sent an official corporate e-mail that included the phrase "Siberian shamanism". My thoughts exactly.

Seeing as they had their Christmas crap up before Halloween, I am guessing they're into Christmas big time.

It's the only day of the year that they are closed. They give their employees paid time off for Christmas.

If you do a search for 'christmas' on Walmarts site you get a page titled "Holidays". However you also see this:
We've brought you to our "Holiday " page based on your search.
Not what you're looking for? View a list of items that match your search for "christmas".
When you click there you get a listing for 7970 items. The other searches come directly to Kwanzaa or Hanukkah. Don't know why the difference there, but the Christmas link is available.
As far as the email, I honestly can't see that coming from a Walmart corporate office either. It just doesn't seem like something a huge company would say. I wonder if it's a creation of that one particular person like some email responses that folks have received in the past from various companies.

Of course, we've probably offended them now by pointing this out. ;-)
WWJD?
He surly wouldn't promote himself with catch phrases on cheap plastic crap, and stupid boycotts.

Yuck, #6 on the Toys of Christmas list is "BRATZ Big Babyz". Toys that promote sleaze.

My Wal-Mart is closed on Thanksgiving also. Don't know about others.

But look on down and you will find Christmas Trees and Christmas Wreaths.

That's what I thought because they close on Thanksgiving and the article stated the response said they only closed on Christmas.

Didn't Walmart stop selling guns too, or something like that??
I bet they are politically correct.
Trying to call a Christmas Tree a Holiday Tree just doesn't sound right - I don;t think that means Walmart doens't avoid the term Christmas.

Dont start Lunatic - you and I went round and round - the Target thing is true - they do not support the Salvation Army, support homo charities and planned parenthood. Boycotting a store or product is exactly how it should work. I guess you would suggest we let the liberals rule the PC crap by only boycotting. Boycots work - and Target should be boycotted.

In my opinion Walmart just needs to be gently reminded that the majority of their shoppers celebrate Christmas. They reap the profits from the season they should not insult us with the generic "Happy Holidays".
To: mnehrling
Do you think for one minute that a Hindu, Buddhist, or Jew is going to look for something at Wal Mart concerning their holiday by typing in "Christmas"?

Where can you shop where things aren't from China? I've been having a hard time finding such a place.

Sure will, especially if they live here in the US.
