Over 20 years ago, I met a couple while I was doing historical work. The wife’s great-grandfather had been Colonel of the 55th Massachusetts. At the time they were living in Washington, D.C., but eventually ended up in Mackinac. They are staunch Democrats, and I hope the news of this is giving them peptic ulcers. The husband used to send a printed letter with their Christmas card each year, extolling all the virtues of the Democrats, while tearing apart the Republicans. It irked me that someone would use Christmas time as a means to throw out political horseshit in their cards. After a while I stopped reading them, and tossed them in the garbage. I chose not to say anything to them, mainly, because the uniform of the woman’s great-grandfather had been donated to a museum at my recommendation...and I didn’t want anything I said, cause them to remove the uniform from display. I simply stopped sending them cards back, hoping they’d get the message, and stop sending them to me. It eventually worked.

Clearly, the deranged couple are “religious leftists” first in worshipping the party of Satan, not Christians. Donated uniform or not, I’d have told them where to get off after the first card.
