The War On Christmas may actually be happening this year, but its being waged by an unlikely culprit: Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R).
Last week, Walkers campaign sent an email encouraging supporters not to buy gifts for their children and to use that money instead to support his reelection effort.
Instead of electronics or toys that will undoubtedly be outdated, broken, or lost by the next Holiday Season, help give your children the gift of a Wisconsin that we can all be proud of, the email read.
Here is the email in full:

You know, something very special happens to people who donate to Republicans in their kids' names and call it a Christmas present: They get stuck in a rest home the day they turn 65 and no one ever goes to see them.
