Notice we're getting more like the left every day!
You said exactly my thoughts. Sometimes when I read threads here I wonder where I am. Maybe someone just needs to spell out the basics:
Wal-Mart is a BUSINESS. They have an enormous customer base. They are bound to offend someone. So, they try as hard as possible to offend no one.
I am very Christian. I understand that we celebrate Christmas because it is the birthday of Christ.
However, Thanksgiving, which marks the beginning of the Holiday Season, is not a part of Christmas. The Jewish Holidays are not a part of Christmas. As much as I hate to say it, Ramadan and Kwanza are not a part of Christmas. But they, whether legitimate or not, are part of the Holiday Season.
People here need to think things through before they over-react. Although I've purchased most of my gifts already from "Work of Human Hands," if I have any last minute stuff to get, I'll go to Wal-mart. They are a great American success story. They provide a fair product at a fair price. They employ thousands. They are very good corporate citizens.
Boycott, indeed! Who are you people?
Off topic maybe to carry your point further, but we do have to be careful on that! This usually happens when when it becomes more important for people to stoke egos (with evermore bizare opinions) than to speak the truth. Let's be cautiously mindful of this as "the thinking" site
