This will probably be just the beginning of all the threads about how stores, merchants and the media won't let us say Merry Christmas. FR was inundated with this stuff last year.

They also send 5% of their on-line sales to gay/lesbian causes. Bah humbug.

I just went to their website, and their "holiday" menu buttons are
Christmas
Hannukah
Kwaanza

But no "Festivus"! How am I supposed to find a cheap, Chinese-made Festivus pole!!!??? (in my best Jerry Stiller outraged voice)

Will their new motto be "Wal-Mart for Christ!"? They could have a little cartoon mascot dressed like a Crusader.

They will now really be a target (not Target) for this. First they are capitalists (oh, my!) and now they fearlessly acknowledge believers (double oh, my!).

Next thing you know, they will start selling guns and supporting the military.

Walmart has lots of enemies. Maybe they have gotten smart and stopped trying to appease them. A good lesson for the Republican Party.

I noticed yesterday that Chick-fil-a has a "Christmas Child" drive for those that want to bring in toys for kids at Christmas. Also say "Merry Christmas" in a Target ad

Excellent!

Now if they could overcome their fear of cleaning their stores . . .

Wal-Mart has told its employees that it's OK to once again greet shoppers by saying "Merry Christmas" this holiday season instead of the generic "Happy Holidays."

ROFL! The cashier I always look for when I shop at Walmart is an immigrant from Germany.

We were talking about this last year, how pitiful it was that people were 'offended' if someone said the word Christmas in their presence. She said "Screw that P.C. crap...MERRY CHRISTMAS!!"

We wished each other a Merry Christmas loudly and proudly until everyone within earshot was grinning.

I'll have to get her reaction to this newest development.

:-)

I don't understand what the big deal is if people say "Happy Holidays." Is it that offensive to be as inclusive as possible during the holiday season?
