#2  Chabrow is a part of "blue" America and generally supports the separation of church and state.

News flash: so does Red America. It's just that we can tell the difference between government "establishing" a religion, and the free exercise of one.

#3 So... did they also have a big program about 'ramanda' (or whatever its called)? How about Kwanza?

#4 The following happened in my son's school. Every friday they get to choose a movie to watch. A classmate suggested a movie about Christmas and the teacher said no because it could offend people of a different religion. A muslim kid stood up and said that it would not offend him and that he would gladly watch the movie.
Someone has to get rid of liberals in teaching positions. They are doing more to create differences among kids of different religious background than the mullahs and Imans of Saudi Arabia.

#6 Seems to me Grant established Christmas as a national holliday some time back. The name Christmas is for someone but I forget who. I mean there has to be a reason we get a week off in December. Now what was that guy's name?

/sarcasm off/

#7 Non-Christian comment. This PC stuff is crap in it's purest form.. I'm not offended by christmas songs; I hum them all during December. And if I was offended: so what? When did people get this insane idea that they have a "right" to not be offended?
