Even in the heat of battle…
In case you haven’t heard, there is a War on Christmas. Across America the “cultural fascists” have been committing the following heinous assaults on Christians and the Baby Jesus:
…..
#The mayor of Cranston, Rhode Island censored all religious displays.
…..
# A nativity scene in Olean, New York was removed from the City Hall lawn after Wiccans placed the pentacle alongside it.
…..
#After a Catholic sued and won demanding a crèche alongside a menorah in Briarcliff Manor, New York, local officials banned both the Christian and Jewish symbols.…..
Please explain to me how banning all religious displays is a War on Christmas. Maybe I’m just obtuse. Someone gets uppity and removes the Christmas tree after a pentacle is put beside it, but that’s still part of the War on Christmas? That sounds more like spoiled brats who don’t want to share the public square with people of other faiths. But I digress.
Then, of course, are the many businesses that “refuse” to say Merry Christmas, choosing instead to say Happy Holidays. This is part of a conspiracy to destroy Christmas and Christians, of course. Christians must fight tooth and nail to turn the tide or Merry Christmas will be lost forever.
Anyhoo, amidst the War on Christmas the wingnuts have had ample time to notice the goings on in the LGBT world. For instance, Pat Robertson, in a recent episode of The 700 Club , claims that the LGBT population is so small that giving us protections from hate-crimes is simply not worth the effort.
Maximum- maximum – 2% of our population could consider themselves gay or homosexual, and about 1% would consider themselves lesbian. That’s it! … There’s one thing about having ten, fifteen percent or twenty percent of our population being discriminated against, that’s a different matter.
According to the American Family Association of PA a local anti-discrimination ordinance is part of the War on Christmas. After all, it was passed on December 17th while the fundagelicals were out supporting crass commercialism for Baby Jesus.
“Christmas time – the perfect time to push this type radical agenda through when everyone is busy with last minute shopping and preparation for the upcoming holidays. It appears the Borough Council is more interested in toeing the line drawn by homosexual and cross dressing activists than it is in taking steps to insure employers can make decisions that are best for their company,” Diane Gramley, president of the AFA of PA, commented.
Lawmakers should know better than to pass any law related to LGBT rights near a Christian holiday. 
Even Mike Huckabee, working hard on the election trail, made an effort to send a little love our way.
On his final stretch of campaigning before the Christmas holiday, Huckabee underlined his lifelong opposition to abortion and gay marriage, issues that will likely drive many churchgoers to the Jan. 3 caucuses in Iowa. He spent Saturday traveling the western edge of Iowa, the most conservative part of the state, where Romney and another rival, former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson, campaigned late last week.
“It’s not because I don’t like them,” Huckabee said of gay people. “It’s because I like even more the idea that the heart and soul, the essence of our civilization is in the family. It’s not in the government. It’s not even in some institution, not even the church. Before there was the church, and before there was government, there was family.
“When you mess with the design, you end up messing with results,” he added. “We can’t afford to do that. That’s why you will never hear me waver.”
And what would the season be without Christmas carolers? Well these aren’t your typical carolers by any means.
Christmas carolers wearing shirts advertising anti-gay principles drew bespectacled looks from store patrons as they sang outside of a Sacramento Target store, officials said Saturday.
Officials said that the carolers said that they were peacefully protesting a new California law that prohibits discriminating against gays in school curriculum.
I tell you, I am amazed at the tenacity of those talibornigans. They’re out there in the trenches fighting against the Radical Secularists who want to destroy Christmas, working to make the world safe for Baby Jesus. They’re willing to write LTTEs, sign petitions, wring their hands and do whatever it takes to cram Christmas down people’s throats. Nevertheless they take the time out to notice what’s going on in LGBT land.
I feel so honored.
