We Say Merry Christmas Here

~Snooper~

From Stormin Norman via email:

'Twas the month before Christmas when all through our land,

Not a Christian was praying, nor taking a stand.

Why the P.C. Policemen were taking away

The reason for Christmas - no one could say.

The children were told by their schools not to sing

About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.

It might hurt someone's feelings, the teachers would say

December 25th is just a "Holiday."

And shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit

Pushing folks down to the floor just to get It!

CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-pod.

Something was changing, something was quite odd!

Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa

In hopes to sell books by Franken and Fonda.

As Best Buy was busy promoting their "WOW"

At Home Depot "Christmas" trees couldn't be found.

At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears

The hallowed word "Christmas" will ne'er grace your ears.

Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-si-ty

The terms that were used to intimidate me.

Now Edwards, Pelosi, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen

On Boxer, on Barack , on Kerry, on Clinton!

At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter

To eliminate Christmas, in all public matter.

And we spoke not a word, as they muzzled our faith

Forbade us to speak of salvation and grace.

The true Gift of Christmas exchanged and discarded

The reason for the season, stopped before it started.

So as you celebrate "Winter Break" under your "Dream Tree"

Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.

Choose your words carefully, choose what you say

Shout "MERRY CHRISTMAS," not "Happy Holiday."

From A Newt One to one and all:

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
