And the whole “He knows when you’ve been sleeping, he knows when you’re awake...” theme is just preparing children to be subservient to domestic spying by the CIA and NSA. Santa contracts the sleigh to the National Reconnaissance Office for the other 364 days a year.

“Santa contracts the sleigh to the National Reconnaissance Office for the other 364 days a year.”

So that’s how George Bush 41 got over to Paris to meet with the Iranians!

From what I understand, Berkeley's a great school, except for the sociology and education departments that garnered the "Bizerkely" moniker for the institution.

What they ought to do is move those departments to whatever passes for the Oakland Community College.

Let them prove their theories and methods by turning Oakland in to a world class civilized city, and then consider letting the departments back on campus.

“The Don Imus-Rutgers incident exposed the slang term ‘Ho’ to the general public as a slur for ‘whore’.

Oh good Lord, it did not.

Anything to go after ANY aspect of Christmas. They won't be satisfied until every last vestige of it is destroyed.

The sad thing is, it’s too close to reality. The world is in pretty bad shape when you can’t tell reality from satire anymore.

Very funny ... thank you. Sad thing is that this is not far from the real stuff we read in the ‘news’ everyday. You may very well have given the idiots some ideas they hadn’t thought of yet. Sigh.

To tell a child that they may be given something that is killing polar bears and penguins is grossly irresponsible.
-

unless they are polar bears named after Mohammad. then you can torture and kill them.

When I was 6, my sister came home from school and announced, “There’s no such thing as Santa Claus!” It was a horrifying moment for me. Santa at that point in my life was the only “higher power” I had ever heard of, and I truly loved him and trusted him. It was a terrible heartbreaking loss.

Ten years later, at 16, I departed from my agnostic family’s non-faith and prayed to accept Jesus into my heart. I continue to trust and love Him to this day.

To: I still care

If my kids don’t “believe” they don’t get a Santa present.

I’m down to only the 4 year old. I thought the 9 year old would at least pretend. :(

I usually fall for these things, but I caught on at the ho, ho, ho part. I guess I still have SOME hope for sanity in this country. :)
