Liberty Counsel: "The war for more money, er we mean, the war on Christmas will never end!"
Edited on Fri Dec-18-09 11:15 AM by ck4829
CNN covers the annual "war on Christmas" and Mat Staver of the Liberty Counsel announces that the Religious Right will never, ever give up:

For Staver, the campaign to save Christmas continues, and it's one he will never abandon.

"What happens this year is not necessarily an indication of what will happen next year, so I think each Christmas has to stand on its own and I think each one is worth fighting for," he said.

"I think we are winning a lot of the battles in the war on Christmas, but I don't think the war is done, and I don't think it ever will be."

BTW, for all your "War on Christmas" (tm) gear, be sure to go the Liberty Counsel's website for the stuff:

"I Love CHRISTmas" Buttons - Pack of 100, only $50.00.

"I Helped Save Christmas" Buttons - Pack of 100, also only $50.00.

And be sure to get your I Love CHRISTmas Bumper Sticker - Pack of 100, only $150.00.

(All actual items and prices on their website)

1. I may have to make a bumper sticker - "I love X-mas" - just to piss off the fundies.
But, as I posted in another thread, the "X" actually STANDS for Christ. As per the first reference I found, Wikipedia:

The "X" in Xmas is from the Greek letter Chi, which is the first letter of Χριστός, Christ in Greek.

Those who say "take the X out of Christmas" are really asking to remove JESUS from Christmas.
