LOS ANGELES, CA, December 14, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Barbara Walters likes to receive Christmas greetings from high-profile celebrities and leaders, but apparently not if they refer to the Bible.

On Thursday's episode of ABC's The View, Walters expressed dismay that President and Mrs. Bush would send out greetings containing Scripture.

During the segment, Walters showed the other gals some of the "highfalutin Christmas cards," and explained the White House card:

So it's okay for someone to compromise their beliefs because of what you think?

I must have missed the part of Jewish law that forbade the acceptance of Christmas cards.

We have gone from Christianity being the norm, to it being acceptable, to now... where we are experiencing open hostility in this nation. Christians better armor up with the knowledge of the Word and be prepared to do battle with these demons. Turn your cheek, but stand your ground and pray for your enemy.

“You alone are the LORD, You made the heavens, even the highest heavens, and all their starry host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them, You give life to everything, and the multitudes of heaven worship you. NEHEMIAH 9:6 (NIV)

What a great Christmas Card.

ABC is completely hostile to anything related to Christainity. The distain that George Stuffolofogous and Cookie Roberts had for Huckabee on This Week was on clear display last Sunday.

Thanks for posting.

I’m offended by it - deeply offended. Why would the President of the United States wish well to some brainless media twit? It’s not like she’d ever return the sentiment.

This twit still needs to learn how to talk.
Then I might take Elmera Fudd seriously...

DouglasKC, you didn’t note that Dan1123 “compromised his beliefs” by graciously accepting sticky cakes with a thank you. From your posts, I can only infer that you would have been a pain in the rear by “educating” the gift giver in the particulars of your religion, at least if the gift giver were Christian.

Below that, in a cursive typeface, it reads: “May the joy of all creation fill your heart this blessed season. 2007” It is signed “George Bush ....Laura Bush.”

God bless and keep you, Mr. President and Mrs. Bush.

Hey, Barbara, you moron, it's a Christmas card, not a "Holiday" or a Ramadan or a Kwaanza card.

“Barbara Walters Slams White House Christmas Card for including Scripture.”

I have gotten a Christmas card from him every year that he has been in office and every year there has been a Bible verse on it. I think that it’s funny that she is bitching about that and not the fact that it is the first Christmas card that she has gotten from him. LOL Just another reason NOT to watch the MSM.

Pity.

Send email to Babawawa:

I sent her the following: "Barbara Walters: As the White House, I wish you a Merry Christmas, in Jesus' name. John 3:16

I'm not an expert on Jewish law, but I would imagine that sending a devout Jew a Christmas card is tantamount to sending a power drill to an Amish person. It might make the sender feel good, but it shows that he cares little or is ignorant of their beliefs.

Next time a Muslim person gives a gift in honor of the prophet Muhammad you sure as shooting better accept it or you too will be deemed ungrateful.

Now you're being silly.
There is a reason why I don't allow explosives around my person.
It violates fire codes...

You infer incorrectly.

I hope he sent that card to Rep. Ellison too.

I got one the other day. How dumb can Baba Walters be? - don't ask!
