Wal-Mart felt the backlash, and backed off the politically correct exclusion of the word Christmas after being threatened with a boycott. Boston set off a furor this week when it officially renamed a giant tree erected in a city park a “holiday tree” instead of a “Christmas tree.” [...] [...] A backlash is happening this year as the American people are making their voices known.

We are losing our identity and /or our foundation. We have made many welcomed. However, in doing so do we need to change everything about us to make everyone feel welcomed. We have always had Christmas tree. Many of have known pine trees as Christmas Tree. What are we leaving for our children, our children's children? Are we going to change the English language to accomodate diourhs language to make them feel welcomed? Are we going to turn our nation into nation without religion? Are we going to let the pedophiles loose so they can assimilate in to society but reoffend? Are we going to turn murderers loose so they can feel a part of the country, so they can murder again? Are we going to close our eyes to crooked business owners, because they are providing jobs? Are we going to close our eyes to crooked politicians because they are providing a highway where 5 citizens will use it but it is providing jobs? Are we going to let alcoholics back on the road because they know how much it takes to make them a menace to society? Do we need to change what we have and have been to make others feel welcomed? Do we need to change our history to make the future more palatable for all. If we are going to revise Christams tree, then revise the history of the Indian or even the slaves. Make the argument over Christams tree and its "new name" a more historical change. What happen to our foundation? Strip it away the whole country falls.

He was never there. Look how we celebrate Christ's birthday and Resurrection: decorated trees, Santa Claus, gorging on food; Easter bunnies, colored eggs...they can have this one. Besides nowhere is there a hint that we celebrate these things. "This do in remembrance of me;" that was about the extent of it. It's a solumn occasion, heart-wrenching to me; we're in the end times - we have enemies to fight, starting with the Bush whitehouse; he is betraying us to Mexico, he is betraying Israel; the Gazans that were evicted from their homes, no home, no car, no money. They are living in tents. I've come to the conclusion that no Israeli or American will ever have a moment's peace until Bush and Condi are no more among the living. But, Jerry, "friend of Israel," gone quite mad from years of idolatry, can't bother with that right now. He hired 1200 or 1500 lawyers to sue someone over a TREE? Well, we must each choose the hill we want to die on. Put Christ back in Christmas? He was never there.

But the plague that has been present in Massachusetts has, very [very!] unfortunately, been spreading to other states.
