See Destroying Cultural Continuity--The Leftist War On Social Cohesion.

For a commentary on those promoting this War on Heritage, see Myths & Myth Makers In American Higher Education.

The present insanity did not just happen. It has been in the works for at least two generations, in the open. The tragedy is that so many Conservatives just observed what was going on, but did nothing effective to stop it.

Next year I plan on saying, "Merry Christmas" louder and more often, especially to any known liberal!

The absolutists and I parted company when they trotted out the argument, with a straight face, that goes as follows:

If there are 30000 people in a group, it is more reasonable to upset 29,988 than the dozen militant atheists present.
Or in a school, to upset 899 families in order to avoid upsetting the one psychotic single mom lesbian.

No redemption for that lame idea.

And say it at least three times to any idiot who insists on wishing you a wimped out "Happy Holidays."

It is if you are a liberal who believes in minority justice. Ever work in an office where several hundred people are forbidden to have popcorn because one employee claims an allergy to the smell of it? That makes perfect sense -- to a liberal.

WALGREEN'S consistently says CHRISTMAS in its advertising. Shop at Walgreen's, and tell them you appreciate it.

Day by day I grow more intolerant of tolerance! If you don`t like something make sure no one else can have it is what passes for tolerance in the country now. Hell with them all, I do what I like and say what I like.

Jesus was sensitive. He died on a Roman cross he was so sensitive.

Those who reject him will condemn themselves to an eternity without God, if they aren't sensitive to the calling of the Holy Spirit.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

In the name of "tolerance" for all cultures, the community leaders and educators issuing these edicts are enforcing an intolerance of any culture. Instead of encouraging Americans to celebrate their rich cultural diversity, those banning cultural expression are asking us to deny that diversity

BRAAD

WE'RE HERE. WE'RE INTOLERANT. GET USED TO IT!
OR  We'll Kick your A$$

bigophobia has no place in this age of tolerance.

Settin' by the roadside on a summer's day
Chattin' with my mess-mates, passin' time away
Settin' in the shadow underneath the trees
Goodness how delicious! Eatin' goober peas

CHORUS:

Peas, peas, peas, peas, eatin' goober peas
Goodness How Delicious Eatin' Goober Peas.
Peas, peas, peas, peas, eatin' goober peas
Goodness How Delicious Eatin' Goober Peas.

Sounds like some more people need to hear about BRAAD.

Sorry to lose you from the ping list, BTW. But you will not be forgotten. And don't forget you can check out our bump-list anytime.

BRAAD! WE'RE HERE. WE'RE INTOLERANT. GET USED TO IT!

Shalom.
