I am going to walk into Wal-Mart and go tell the manager Merry Christmas and let him or her know I am leaving there empty handed.

I think that's a good idea. I'll do the same.

Why do people accept everything they read on the net as true?

I went into my local Walmart y-day, and they are hanging banners with Christmas all over them.

This is another attempt by the lefties to disparage Walmart, and we accept it. give me a break, Walmart would NEVER alienate 80% of its customers for PC anything.

THINK ABOUT IT!!!!!

And consider this, the source is World Net Daily.

Christmas is not commercialized enough! We must fight until Christmas is attached to every retailing venture anyone can imagine!

My wife has gotten hired to work in the TOYS Dept. in Wal Mart. She was hired as Christmas help.
Trust there is no banning of Christmas going on there.

Better yet, why don't you do what I just did after I caught wind of this story. I went right to their web page and wrote a lengthy letter telling them that because they are bigots about the Christian holiday and instead celebrating a false holiday, called Kwanzaa, I or my wife will not be shopping there again.

Thanks for posting this story and God Bless.

We've got bigger problems now -- this thread has opened up some sort of temporal loop! When I clicked to WND to read the article, the author there quotes posts 2 & 9 from this very thread on FR. How in the Merry Christmas did that happen?

I'm not bothered by this on bit ...

It looks like they simply used the term "Holiday" to point to a specially designed page that promotes a broader assortment than what a "christmas" search would return. If you really want to search for "christmas" you would actually return fewer offerings.

Bad sign from Wal-Mart. Also, they called for a minimum wage hike (gov't, not just their own), knowingly hire illegal aliens, caved to pc sexual orientation policies, caved on pharmacy policies, etc. Their appease-the-left plan will just ensure no one is loyal to them.

As an affirmed member of the Sam's Club Cult, I appreciate their holiday offerings. They've got a great selection of wrapping paper, bows and unusual items I normally wouldn't bother with. I don't shop at Wal-mart (I love my local Meijer), but Sam's carries a big selection of Christmas and Christian books. There's always at least one Nativity set, too. Since they don't bother with banners and other expensive inside advertising, the "happy holidays" argument doesn't apply.

Why? I don't think he had any say in the new marketing decisions. How could the store mngr. change anything? He's just another peon.
