#5 From Michelle Malkin's My Christmas Crusade (on her blog):

I am hereby launching the Lump of Coal campaign. Later today, I will box up a lump of charcoal, mark the package "MERRY CHRISTMAS!" and send it to the Denver Mayor in protest of his idiotic policy. Please join me in doing the same (and if you take a photo of your creatively designed package, I will link/post).

Send to:

Mayor John W. Hickenlooper
Denver City and County Building
1437 Bannock Street, Suite 350
Denver, CO 80202

#6 If the Parade is sponsored by the City of Denver, they can not legally exclude ANYONE from participating. If the Parade is privately funded, exclusions are legal. The Supreme Court decided that in the case brought by a Gay Rights group against the organizers of the St. Patrick's Day Parade in Boston a few years ago. The Supreme Court found in favor of the Prganizers of the St Patrick's Day Parade under the freedom of association clause of the Constitution. I would guess the Mayor has no legal footing for this ban.

#8 That's ridiculous. Perhaps they forgot to turn on the Christmas Tree lights on their float?

Anyway, an early Merry Christmas! to all of you who celebrate it. And Greetings of the Season to the rest of you :-)
