The War on White Christmas



Megyn Kelly has a message for all the children staying up past bedtime to watch "The Kelly File:" Santa is white.

The Fox News host on Wednesday discussed a Slate piece written by Aisha Harris, in which Harris detailed the effect of seeing the local mall's white Santa in contrast with her family's black Santa.

"By the way, for all you kids watching at home, Santa just is white but this person is just arguing that maybe we should also have a black Santa," Kelly said. "Santa is what he is and just so you know, we are debating this because someone wrote about it, kids."

....

"Just because it makes you feel uncomfortable doesn't mean it has to change," Kelly said. "Jesus was a white man, too. He was a historical figure. That's a verifiable fact -- as is Santa. I just want the kids watching to know that. My point is, how do you just revise it in the middle of the legacy of the story and change Santa from white to black?"

Woah


First the atheists and now another part of the Dem coalition, the blacks are trying to end Christmas as we know it. First, they're not grateful that slave masters gave them food and shelter, and now they want to take away white Santa. Every history book in Texas shows that Santa and Jesus were both white. You can't argue science away just because you have emotional problems. Having a black President isn't enough, you have to steal white Santa and white Jesus too? Well, not if Megyn Kelly and Bill O'Reilly have anything to say about it.

I came in here wondering what the heck...who is Megan Kelly and why all of these threads about her?

I now get it, clearly, from watching that video which you've provided.

Thank you!

has declared War on Christmas. While other stations move on, Foxnews continues to declare others declare War on Christmas. Sadly too many people pay attention to them and believe Foxnews.
