The republicans started this "war of attrition on Christmas"
Edited on Mon Dec-07-09 04:39 PM by Hubert Flottz
It started under Reagan the mass exportation of good paying American jobs. The jobs left the country like wildfire under Bush. The War on Christmas has trickled down to the kids. Shock and Awe is getting up on Christmas morning and not finding a damed thing under the tree but a pink slip from Dad's old job that he don't have anymore. The country was well into the tank before Obama came to town. The GOP owns this mess and everyone in the country KNOWS it!

Santa is flat assed Busted due to all the war toys the GOP used up in Iraq. Santa Klutz gave the rich people 5 tax cuts while two wars were in progress. The Pubs have ruined Christmas and every other day of the year for years to come. Reminds me of back in the days when Ike(R) ruined the first Christmas I can ever remember having.

Edited on Mon Dec-07-09 04:42 PM by ck4829
It's about people saying "Happy Holidays" when they should be saying "Merry Christmas"!!!!111!!!! Can't you remember the reason for the season... of this right wing inspired divisiveness?

:sarcasm:, well, except for the last part.

K&R.

6. Ike ruined the economy just like any other republican who has...
gotten into the White House. People back then were working a day or two a week if they even had a job at all...sound familiar?

5. Where he leads them they will follow...
What he feeds them they will swallow(even if it's more bad Kool-Aid)

The credit card companies will be raking in their 29% and going to church the next day to brag about what fine people they are.

"What Will We Tell The Children?"

7. Greet people, "Happy Import-hoarding Occassion"
You are correct. The Republicans have done everything in their power to undermine the American manufacturing industry.

9. Why do they HATE America?
Because the only thing that means anything to the GOPer higher ups is cash money!

"God" is a stage prop to those self serving greedy assholes. If they really believed in God or the Bible they would be afraid to live they kind of lives they live. They try and fool "God". They think "God" is a dumb ass and that they have pulled the wool over "God's" eyeballs or eyeball. They think they can break every one of their "Ten Commandments" and "God" won't find out or care about it. They trample the weak and those who are least able to fight them back and feel no guilt or remorse. They lie, steal, cheat and murder. And they think "God" won't notice.

Their "God" is their money! Their religion is their greed.

10. Thanks for the Ks and Rs
The "lump of coal in the stocking" might be asking too much this year. Those lumps of coal are costing the people of West Virginia our beautiful mountains. Not a very good trade-off. It's the saddest thing I've ever seen...(mountain top removal strip mining)

Dear Santa, please tell the coal barons to stop tearing down what it's taken nature 5 billion years to build.
