The Last Word on the War


For this year. For ever. A middlebrow analysis of the war.

Of course, as the war was started by a right wingnut, the focus is a little... off.

Much of the over-secularization is from the retail sector of the economy trying to hype the gift-buying season. I might not be encouraged to shop shop shop if I'm not buying Christmas gifts. But I maybe can be hopped up to shop if it's for another holiday that I celebrate. Retailing is not about letting any sale be lost.

So, you wingnuts, where's the blame for the major instigators? Lost in the noise of lies.

Too, this "Happy Holidays" crap isn't actually secular. It's inclusive, reflective of, well, a multi-cultural society. When my kid celebrates the holidays in her public school, they're celebrating Christmas among others; ain't nothing exclusive going on.

As for some of the examples the wingnuts find of what can be called over-secularization -- well, for any given rule, there's at least one exceptions. There's always aberrations.

Like a cable news channel that's 99.9% (an approximation, not an exaggeration) lies.
