First I have heard of Coke doing that...I am absolutely floored.
"First I have heard of Coke doing that...I am absolutely floored."
Bill O'Reilly was talking about this. He has that book about the War on Christmas. Apparently Coke has used Santa for 74 years, in recent years adding the Polar Bears. This year the are dropping Santa and replacing him with Penguins (admittedly cute penguins).
O'Reilly had a staffer call and ask Coke why there were no Santa Christmas cans this year and the staffer was told it wasn/t true. But when O'Reilly had the staffer call back and just pretend to be an upset customer they were told that Coke would bring Santa back one more time next year for his 75th anniversary.
It's like the Christmas trees - Christmas isn't about Santa or trees or store employees being told what to say - it's about God's love for man his desire that we love each other... but it still is irritating when our religion become politically incorrect.
