"How nice of our "Blue" friends to give us this ready-made list for our "holiday" antishopping!"
It certainly helps! Thank you!
Microsoft gives to both, generally they donate roughly the same to each, but oftentimes more to the Republicans. Which shouldn't surprise anyone, because Microsoft came under fire by the Clinton administration during the anti-trust lawsuits that Microsoft faced.
It's Bush's fault that it's Bush's fault is getting old.

Crate & Barrel too. I've shopped in both.
Why did I know I would find you on here?
It never ceases to amaze me that we have folks who defend PC on here. I guess for some folks, negative attention is better than no attention at all.
If I don't run into you before then, Merry Christmas. I hope the harvest went well.
I'm sure they do. And I'm sure the ones that currently buy them also did when they were called Christmas trees.
Calling menora a "Holiday Candelabra" would be just as stupid.
Um, because I see examples of it everyday?
I listed what I thought the possible motiviation was, why don't you tell me what reason(s) you can think of to write like this?
And it surely wasn't "bad writing".
NO, "Happy Holidays" is a form of CENSORSHIP. It is a phrase used as a way to CENSOR the word CHRISTMAS. Nobody will be wishing anyone "Happy Holidays" after December 25 -- even though Hannuka and Kwanza come after December 25 this year. "Happy Holidays" is a phrased used by the secularists and anti-christians to BANISH the word that this entire season is about - CHRISTMAS. The word CHRISTMAS is being CENSORED. Even though everyone knows that Christmas is the "holiday" that all the celebration is aiming toward. When the 25th is over, the music stops, and "Happy Holidays" is no longer said - - - so it's obvious everyone means "Christmas" but they're deliberately not using the word (either from hostility toward Christianity or from fear of the Politically Correct Censorship police).
Amen to that!!!!
Well, that's great! I'm sure they enjoy them.
I have many Black friends.
If we're not allowed to wish people "Merry Christmas" out loud - - and if the stores that cater to a population that is 80 percent Christian make money off Christmas giving, but refuse to utter the real name of the holiday -- then we might as well live in an Islamic Country. You won't see or hear the word "Christmas" there, either.
Normalcy is not a word..... the word your looking for is Normality.
(it's a pet peeve)

People Against Goodness And Normalcy
Glad I could help.
Being a non-Christian, can you tell me if it makes one more comfortable buying a "holiday tree" as opposed to a Christmas tree?
