People will get offended at anything. It's not just leftists getting offended at the mention of God or Santa anymore - now its the right wing as well, getting upset about the phrase "Happy Holidays." I guess we should be thankful. Anyone who gets so worked up about this stuff clearly has a lot of free time and thus must be doing well financially.
Also, as someone who invested several thousand dollars into Wal-Mart stock a few weeks ago and is finally seeing his money grow in the stock market, please continue to shop at Wal-Mart - or begin shopping there if you have never been. This Christmas versus Happy Holidays crap is nothing but a ploy by the same folks who hate Wal-Mart because it is a successful capitalist venture - the same folks who recently released the movie "Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Prices." Bunch of communists.
Notice we're getting more like the left every day!
There's something going on that you don't know about.
Like I said on another thread, if you put a gun to my head, I couldn't remember whether Wal-Mart cashiers said "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Holidays" to me last year. They might well have said "Praise Baal," for all I know.
Maybe I'm weird, but I'm not looking for a corporation to validate my preferred holiday greeting. All I expect from a corporation is that they obey the law and give me the lowest price on whatever widget I happen to be buying. If they do that, their board of directors could be practicing satanists, for all I care.
Excuse me, I am very offended by Happy Holiday.
Don't you realize that Holiday is derived from Holy Day?
Who the heck wants to celebrate a Holy Day?
Try to be more considerate of others' beliefs.
