Starbucks War on Christmas

photo 1447085057_starbucks-red-cup-lg.jpg

It's the time of year when frosty mornings lead to a new level of "War on Christmas" poutrage from the religious right. This happens every year, but has reached a new level of stupid.

Starbucks coffee company decided this year to use red cups for the holidays but leave off Christmas symbols like snowflakes, reindeer and trees (are those even religious?), and this caused some idiot "preacher" on Facebook named Joshua Feuerstein to make a viral video saying people should tell baristas that their name is "Merry Christmas" so they would have to say it out loud. Then the internet crazies took over and called for a boycott over the red cup, which even made Bristol Palin embarrassed - and her mother literally wrote the book on the "War on Christmas"!!!






























Ben Carson would understand!

#OverIt2014 ~ Fox News Hashtag Boomerangs Big Time

photo 96f6599c-2b92-4a42-a6ac-1f7b77506afb.jpg

The idiots that host Fox News decided to start a hashtag for viewers called #OverIt2014 probably in hopes there would be tweets like "Obama's Constant Golf Game #OverIt2014." Instead the whole thing boomeranged back onto them, proving once again that they are the Wile E. Coyotes of the News World.

Fox's Megyn Kelly Tells Kids Jesus was White, just like Santa

photo imagesqtbnANd9GcQzVcoJcxblPgqjXqZbC.jpg

Yet another person saying it's racist for Santa to be white....
For all you kids watching at home, Santa just is white....Santa is what he is.... I wanted to get that straight.
. . . Just because [an image] makes you feel uncomfortable doesn't mean it has to change. I mean, Jesus was a white man too. He was a historical figure — that's a verifiable fact. As is Santa. I just want the kids watching to know that.
~ Fox Host Megyn Kelly



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Who are you even talking to? Children who are sophisticated enough to be watching a news channel at 10 o’clock at night, yet innocent enough to still believe Santa Claus is real, yet racist enough to be freaked out if he isn’t white?
. . . Who exactly is changing the facts to make themselves more comfortable here? Actual Saint Nicholas — well, my guess is there’d be no Christmas if he looked [darker], because he’s probably still on the no-fly list.
. . . You do know Jesus wasn’t born in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, right?
~ Jon Stewart on Comedy Central

Jesus's whiteness is a verifiable fact. I mean, just look at any photo of Jesus. He was just your average Aramaic-speaking First Century Middle Eastern White Guy.
~ Stephen Colbert on Comedy Central

Grinchy Gov. Scott Walker - Don't Buy Your Kids Toys, Just Send Me Money

photo grinch.gif

Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin sent out an interesting fund-raising letter:

"Instead of electronics or toys that will undoubtedly be outdated, broken, or lost by the next Holiday Season, help give your children the gift of a Wisconsin that we can all be proud of."

If you would like to give the gift that keeps on screwing you over this Holiday season, you can donate to Governor Scott Walker rather than buy that GI Joe with the Kung Fu grip.
While liberals like myself are doing their part in the War on Christmas by setting up their own Christmas tree for the first time in their lives, conservatives like Scott Walker are asking you to give to them rather than to your family.
And what will you get in return? Even less gratitude than your children will give you for buying the wrong toy.
~ Jordan Ashby on The Daily Banter

Scott Walker’s war on Christmas: Screw your kids, give me campaign cash instead
~ Headline on Raw Story

Scott Walker should change his name to Douchebag McScrooge.
~ John W. on Raw Story

Where's Fux Snooze? This is a blatant attack on Christmas!
~ Wicked Romeo on Raw Story

Ask not what Scott Walker can do for you , ask what you can do for Scott Walker.
With this guy in office they should change the mascot from the
badger to a skunk.
~ Larrysalmonoski on Huff Post

"a gift that will keep on giving" Isn't that commonly meant to describe an STD?
~ brbr2424 on Huff Post

If the GOP had it's way, we wouldn't HAVE the money for black Friday, christmas, school supplies, uncanned food, or toothpaste.
~ Gene H. on Huff Post

For all the whining and crying by conservatives about a supposed war on Christmas, it seems the only person actually waging such a war is none other than Republican Governor Scott Walker. One has to wonder how parents would explain to their children why there are no presents under the tree. ‘Sorry kids, no presents this Christmas because Scott Walker’s happiness is more important than yours this year’? That sounds like what conservatives would say.
~ Stephen Foster on Addicting Info

Yes, that's right. Don't buy your kids presents. Give to Walker instead.
My advice: if you've got to choose between buying gifts for your kids and giving to any political campaign anywhere for anything, go with the kids. But Scott Walker? Scott Walker is going to save your kids from deficits? Really?
~ blue aardvark on Daily Kos

Save Christmas. Just say no to Governor Scrooge.
~ TomP on Daily Kos
