No more x-mas/Faux news is getting an early start this year.

http://www.rawstory.com/news/2006/OReilly_Progressives_want_no_more_Christmas_1013.html


In the following video from Fox's Your World with Neil Cavato, conservative author Bill O'Reilly tells the audience that he fears gains by progressives could mean "no more Christmas."

Secular progressives, O'Reilly claims, want "No more Christmas, no pledge of allegiance to God. No more Christmas – 'this is pulling us down, because it's too judgmental.'"

1. ROFL he's hysterical! No more Christmas?
If that was the Dem platform, I'd walk. Christmas is terrific, the family, the warm spirit, the gifts. I don't mind if you go to church, O'Lielly. Just stop expecting me to.

3. What's this "pledge of allegiance to God" ?
Never heard of it but it sounds like a private religious ritual.

5. All our children will burst into flames and Martians will invade the earth
I'm gonna have a mighty fine Christmas, but I doubt if Osama bin Reilly will.

7. Bill and Neil sound like two adults
Telling each other scary ghost stories and giving each other the willies. At the end of the show (I hope) they realize it's only make believe, but darn it's sure is fun to pretend. FOX the no sanity zone.

10. Oh, my! Poor form, Mr. O'Lielly! Everyone knows that you can't
bring out Christmas until after the Halloween decorations come down. You should be focusing instead on the pagan roots of that holiday and working to make sure every child is dressing up as a saint, instead of devils like President Bush.

11. True Story, Bill. . .
Every good Republican knows that productivity would increase if we stopped celebrating Christian holidays by declaring them national holidays. If O'Lielly keeps up this whining, some GOP companies will start suing to remove the sacred wingnut Christmas from the national calendar and declare it just another workday. . .hahaha. How arrogant of the Factor to expect everyone to stop and observe someone else's religious holiday, when we don't get time off for anyone else's festivals.

12. Well, Bill O'Reilly can not celebrate if he wants to
As for me, I'm having a tree, lots of presents, and a great big Christmas dinner this year. And woe to any "progressives" who try to stop me! :sarcasm:
