more of the war on christmas...

i don't usually read wonkette, so this post is a few days old. still, i enjoyed it enough to pass it on to the rest of you. i recommend reading the whole thing (it's not that long; in fact, below is about half of the entire thing), but at the very least, chew on this tasty little morsel:

The truth is, anytime someone starts talking to you about how Christians are persecuted in the United States, you are -- right then and right there -- talking to a retard. There's just no other way of saying it. And the War on Christmas is an idea akin to a bullshit sandwich, once you've deleted all the "sandwich-like" characteristics, anyway. The word "holiday" is derived from "holy day", Linus Van Pelt is always going to deliver his reading of Luke on national television year after year, and WASH-FM is going to be playing their drive-time five-song manger birth blocks every December until the Sun finally dies.
