Methinks the lady doth protest too much; I get the feeling that if Hannukah, Kwanzaa, and the pagan Solstice were excluded, Ms. Falsani would be just fine with the secular Christmas.

[BenLurkin]

"Unless we're meant to be concelebrating Bacchanalia or -- and this is even a stretch -- Mardi Gras, nothing in the Christian, Jewish and pagan traditions or the African-American cultural ideals that Kwanzaa celebrates would encourage the faithful to throw all rules out the window and do whatever feels good, man."

Gee, what uptight religiosity.

Kwanzaa bells, dashikis sell
Whitey has to pay;
Burning, shooting, oh what fun
On this made-up holiday!

It’s a cup of steaming something...

But Cathleen, this is what you have been working for all
those years of NOW meetings, and party caucuses, all those
non-sexual, non-violent, non-racial, Save the dwarf snow
bunny, recycled wrapping paper, and Green presents like
naming a dolphin somewhere in the Pacific ocean, or
drowning a Japanese whaler. Now? Now you want the
Christmas of your childhood? Sorry, it doesn’t exist
for your children any more. You YOU killed it and it
wasn’t enough that you had to do it to your own kids,
NOOOO you had to make sure it was to all the kids every
where AND their parents. Parents who are so guilt ridden
that they won’t even buy their kids cap guns, and are so
afraid they might suffer self esteem that you only give
them non-competative awards at school so no one will be
LEFT OUT. Well, you won’t have to worry about weather
your kids are going to grow up winners or not, they
won’t understand the meaning of the word.

Have a Happy Holiday C. Hope the Change makes you happy.

Falsani is a liberal Democrat? Then the scumbag is a liar. Her party is leading the “war on Christmas” and one of its thuggish arms, the ACLU, is relentlessly trying to remove Christianity from public view. ...So why would she be whining about this ad? Her party could have written it.

Don’t buy from GAP or any other stores that ridicule this holiday. Hit in the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

Give them a RED Christmas.

[Tax-chick]

Who buys anything at The Gap, anyway? Who watches commercial TV?

The Seven Qualities of Kwanzah sound like they are directly from Mao’s Little Red Book.

Of Course, WE ALL know the origin of the Holiday:http://97.74.65.51/readArticle.aspx?ARTID=10079

I almost never buy anything from the GAP as imho, most of their merchandise is ugly, low quality, over-priced crap. This latest just cinches it for me.

GAP stock and the overall co. have tanked in recent years as well - stupid management making stupid decisions.

hmmm... i had a very odd thought

what if we pushed for this Christmas to be non-materialistic with all our family members? imagine the impact on the national economy.

0bummer wouldn’t be very happy with the outcome... that being no Christmas cheer for his numbers, thereby causing him and his ilk even more problems.

hmmm

[Jess Kitting]

"Happy Dowhateveryouwannukah."

I don't need the Gap's permission to "Do whatever I want-ukah."

[TASMANIANRED]

I almost never buy something based on advertisments.

I do boycott stuff based on their ads though.

[American Constitutionalist]

MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone !!

[OldSmaj]

Kwanzaa is a nonreligious festival, begun in 1966

(by a convicted felonious woman-beating radical)

and celebrated nearly exclusively in the United States

(by at least 12 households, mostly in Bezerkly, CA) ,

which celebrates African-American culture and values

(but which is shoved down our collective Caucasian throats every year by embarrassed politicians that pander to the NAACP radicals).

There.

Fixed it.
