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:

How can Baba Wawa be on “The View” when she has her head up her ...?

Sorry, I have several conservative orthodox Jewish friends who keep closely to the Torah and they have accepted Christmas cards and gifts graciously

I'm sure you meant well and they were very gracious not to point out your lack of sensitivity. :-)

To Ellison?

Maybe that’s not pity. Maybe courtesy. Maybe as a reminder.

Not spite though. Not a propos this time of year.

Now sending one to Hillary & Bill. THAT is worth chuckling over.

You’re right. All of the Christmas cards sent by the President and First Lady have had biblical quotes. In fact, the 2000 card sent as Gov. and First Lady of Texas also had a biblical quote.

Babawawa is a senile old fool.

“What do you expect, Walters?”

A seasons greetings card? Do you think the Jews on the Bush’s list get Hannukah cards? Does Condi get a happy Kwanza card from the President?

Funny, I wouldn’t be suprised if they did send them out that way.

Are the cards from the Bushes or the government?

Yeah, we can’t all be so “sensitive” as to never share any event of our lives with anyone who might be offended.

A few years ago the USPS tried to stop printing the Madonna stamp. People were so outraged that the post office was forced to continue them.

Around here you can’t find the Madonna stamps. They sold out a week ago. All that is left is the eid stamp and snowmen or someother strange stamp.

Maybe we should require one of those cigarette pack style Surgeon General warnings about religious content in Christmas card.

Great idea.

Wow!!!! “Jesus said unto her, Go call thy husbsand, and ome hither. The woman answered and said unto her, thou hast well said, I have no husband, I have no husband. or thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband in that saidst thou truly. The woman saith unto Him, Sir, I perceive hou art a prophet. Our Fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem
is the place where men ought to worship. Jesus saith unto her, woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worsship the Father. Ye worship what ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.” John 4:15-22).
