Piss ‘em all off and say Merry Christmas to everyone you meet.

I have to confess that being Christian and all, oversize displays of Santa Clauses, Frosty Snowmen, Rudolph the Moose and the rest of the Coca-Cola-style imagery at Christmas offends me too, not that I have money for lawyers.

The same logic that would be used to shut down these displays is the same infringement of free speech logic that would impose the Censorship Doctrine to silence the voice of Conservative opposition to the MSM/Democrat complex. They want to right to not be offended. Come to think of it, but for the lack of money for lawyers, it sounds like you perhaps agree that you also have the right to not be offended.

It’s just a side comment. Of course people should be free to put up any cartoon characters they want, any day.

Do not draw the wrong inference from my comments.

IMHO, the slang term 'wuss' describes a coward who will not act on his/her convictions. Whereas an Obama supporter is simply a philosophically misguided anal orifice. :-)

Exactly! Just like the Muslims are so caring and loving about our religious beliefs!

What offends this Jewish woman is the blatant idiocy displayed by that employee. I don’t even want to think about the reaction a nativity scene would have elicited from a moron who objected to decorative lights. I’m only glad reason prevailed in the end - at least this time.
