i am tired of right-winger always trying to politically correct people for not contributing to their narrow, minded view. I can't stand right-wingers, like faith to action, who organize plan to boycott a store because the greeter didn't said the politically correct word of marry Christmas. If your Christmas is ruined by a greeter saying happy holiday or the school not celebrating the politically correct religion as in Christmas than that meant that your faith is really weak and that you should go into church more instead of trying to politically correct everyone around you.
It is a sad day today that right wingers spend time blaming liberals, accusing them of not being tolerant of them yet they go around trying to politically correct other people for it but than again I guess they had that right because they had always been bigot in the first place. While right winger rant about how politically incorrect it is to said happy holiday because they are offended by it and that the store should be boycott, they continue to ignore the larger issue, like this:
Crucifixes Made Under Horrific Sweatshop Conditions in China
“Jesus, take pity on me! I’m going to die of exhaustion.”
--Chinese worker after 19-hour shift
Sweatshop Crucifixes Sold at Saint Patrick’s Cathedral, Trinity Church, and Nationally by the Association for Christian Retail
November 2007

So your Christmas is going to be ruin if a greeter don't said merry Christmas yet it had no effect on you whatsoever if you buy crucifixes from store that used sweatshop? It tells me where your priority lies. The whole merry Christmas thing started with devote Christian who felt that the Christmas season had been felt so commercialize that they started to call Christmas, holiday, as a way not to confuse nor continue commercializing Christmas. There had never been a war on Christmas and who are these people that are offended by the word merry Christmas. Can you give me a name? Or a town closing down for Christmas because they don't want to offend someone?
The only person I see starting the whole war on Christmas is right-winger who are offended by being greeted happy holiday. It is right winger who are organizing boycotts of store that don't said merry Christmas, forcing their view upon everybody else. I don't see a Jewish group or Muslim group organizing a boycott of stores that don't said happy (whatever their religion is). Let me put it into better terms, here are the right wingers who are boycotting stores that don't said merry Christmas because they were offended by happy holiday:
Right-wingers: whatever is on right-winger radio and fox news?

Where are these people that are hurt by merry Christmas, do they exist in people’s head? These right winger need to turn off the computer, turn off rush Limbaugh, turn off fox news, and get out of their mother basement to celebrate the holiday or Christmas seasons with their family because I am sure that their love one is missing them since they are too busy being brainwash into thinking that they are being attack by liberals or whatever that they had made up in their mind and boycotting stores that don't said merry Christmas.
Oh and don't even get the aclu into this, the aclu defend anyone who civil liberties that is threaten while the right wingers who claims victim hood never defended anyone who isn't right wing Christians. Right wingers need to stop projecting themselves upon everyone else, the world is not out to get you, so stop with all the damn conspiracy theory of being over run by liberals. Gosh, get some fresh air once in a while or worse, spend time with your family, I am sure they miss you a lot. Anyways, here is the comparison between the ACLU and the right-wingers, and who they are defended:

Here is what right-winger did toward other religion:
Tried to politically correct representative Keith Ellison when he decided to use Thomas Jefferson Koran instead of the bible in his photo opts reenactment of his swearing in. The right-wingers argue that kith Ellison should had used the bible because it is the politically correct thing to do. Here is what a right-winger said:
Conservative radio talk show host and columnist Dennis Prager wrote: "America is interested in only one book, the Bible." Directly addressing Ellison, he added "If you are incapable of taking an oath on that book, don't serve in Congress."
They celebrated when they don't have to hire other politically incorrect religious people through the faith base initiatives
They pass successfully gay bashing laws like the marriage protection acts or whatever it is within their states and tired to make it into amendments.
I think that this picture can explain it all:

Right wingers, you need to stop listening to the radio, watching fox news, and reading websites that advocates boycott of stores that don't said merry Christmas because no one is out to get you, it is all in your head. Spend time with your family instead of boycotting. for those of you who qoute barry goldwater, he also said that every good conservatives would kick jerry falwel ass and that you don't need to be straight to shoot straight and now a day, conservatives are embracing people like jerry falwel and passing gay bashing laws.
















You watch too much TV.
Turn off the computer, and go outside. It's a gorgeous day, spend some time with your family, and realize there are beautiful things in the world.
What!? So, what, "right-wingers" are the bigots, and you're the one insulting them all, saying that they are brain-washed, live in their mother's basement, etc. How about you practice what you preach?
By the way, since I know that you're attacking me with this blog, how about you just come our and say it, instead of referring to Barry Goldwater? I don't know anything about the guy, I just found this quote and liked.
Stop being so bigoted and ruled by your pre-conceived stereotypes.
"A government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take everything you have." - Barry Goldwater
"... the ostensible means [diversity] of acheiving a desired end had become the end itself." - Clarence Thomas
Oh relax.
You are just giving him incentive to continue.
I am amused that you have created the verb, "to politically correct (someone)." Thank you for your contribution to English grammar.
Yeah, people have too much time on their hands. So what if Christians lose an inconsequential battle? They already control so much, I don't know why they're fussing.
T.k.
Removed. This whole blog is just too hard to follow. Just when I thought I knew what you were trying to say, you said something completely different.
Make up your mind: are right wingers upset because someone said "happy holidays" or "merry christmas"? And please, proofread! It doesn't take very long and ensures that my tiny liberal brain doesn't have to figure out what appears to have been written in code.
It is, with almost no exception, the conservatives that are called politically incorrect, and the liberals (that'd be the left wingers) that push political correctness.
As for the aclu 'aiding' christians or conservatives, I see you did indeed pull a list of cases, but apparently didn't dig into any of them very much. I'd almost guarentee that you didn't look at any of those cases on websites OTHER than that one, if you looked at any of them at all.
The ACLU has tried to use everything from bully tactics to the RICO laws to try to silence pro-life groups. They're the ones that are trying to defend NAMBLA and other child molsters, as well as pornographers in general.
Here's something that might help understand the rift between christianity and the ACLU: http://acluvsamerica.com/main/default.aspx
