Most nativity sets contain at least one ass. This Democratic version one has several.

It is not suprising because often in these type of Nativity scenes, comtempary settings are often involved.

It would be more apropos if Hillary was in a Halloween setting, not the Nativity. To put her in the Holy Family manger scene is sacrilegious.

But that's show biz.

That is the stupidist thing I have ever heard of. They have no business being anywhere close to Jesus.

Just a word from my me to my paisans in my Grandfathers home town.

Do your research a little better homies, Klintoon and Hussein are UN-AMERICANs. McCain is the Manchurian Candidate. and Rudy is a Socialist gun-grabbing baby killer.

I love the Italian people. I have worked in Italy at least 7 times. This is the biggest crap I have ever seen from them. This boy needs to stop looking a the liberal press over there.

I have long maintained that Italy has no press, just a ‘stampa’. I lived there for 3 years, and I can document this to be the truth. Saying that ‘stampa’ is the Italian word for press is akin to saying that ‘risotto’ is the Italian word for diarrhea.

That Italians think that McCain and Giuliani are the Republican frontrunners is just more evidence in support of my position.

Point of order: that’s not a Nativity scene.

It’s a grouping of ugly dolls.

A Nativity scene includes Joseph, Mary, Jesus, an angel, some wise men, and assorted stable animals.

Hillary hasn't looked this good in 25 years and Rudy hasn't worn glasses since 1994. The artist needs to get up to speed!

So basically, one of those figures now is a candidate for:

The Antichrist.
