I’m not going to spend a lot of time on this. It pisses me off way too much. Every year it’s the same bullshit, from the same band of fools at Fox News.
The leaders are usually, Gretchen Carlson, Laura Ingraham and Bill O’Reilly. There are others, but it seems to send these three beyond even their ability to be rational or accurate, and that is hard to do.
As is frequently the case, Jon Stewart highlighted their stupidity as only he can do.
This year, first on the list is the Rhode Island Governor, Lincoln Caffee, had the audacity to invite all of America to their “Tree Lighting Ceremony”. This caused a shit-storm at Fox that simply cannot be explained by any standard of a normal human brain.
Needless to say, since we’re talking about Fox, it has to include mistakes, stupidity and lies. Gretchen the Christian in an interview, pointed out that the previous REPUBLICAN Governor called it a “Christmas Tree Lighting”.
Jon Stewart, of course, produced a copy of the 2009 invitation to the “Holiday Tree Lighting”.
Then, of course, we had to listen to Laura Ingraham’s rant. She blathered on about why did the Pilgrims brave the seas to come here? They fought, and blah, blah for religious freedom.
Jon Stewart, of course, produced a picture of the article, from the Pilgrims, in the 17th century, outlawed Christmas celebration, or any decorations, saying it was a sacrilege and a satanical ritual. They would be fined for saying Merry Christmas.
Seriously, how dumb and uniformed are these morons?
Here are a few other facts, something that Fox hates:
The majority of the world still has different practices other than ‘Christmas’ which is an ancient tradition that has its roots in Siberian shamanism. The colors associated with ‘Christmas’ red and white are actually a representation of of the aminita mascera mushroom. Santa is also borrowed from the Caucuses, mistletoe from the Celts, yule log from the Goths, the time from the Visigoth and the tree from the worship of Baal. It is a wide wide world.”
Christmas was originally a Pagan holiday, celebrating life and the sun. Pagan only became a “bad” word when the Christians demanded it during their 2,000 year reign of terror that followed the Romans.
Almost every Christian Holiday has it’s roots in other civilizations hundreds and hundreds of years before Christianity was ever thought of.
Hoping that Fox, or even the majority of Christians, to actually accept facts, is hopeless.

John, are you feeling OK. I hope you get back soon I want to talk about Rick Santorum.
After the way the ” WETS” played sat. they don’t deserve to make the playoffs. My sister and brother surprised us for Christmas hope you had a good one.
Hi Jeff,
Ah yes, the diamond in a sea of shit. About a month ago, I told my son that Green Bay would lose one, and Indy would win one before the year ended.
It NEVER occurred to me the one GB lost would be to the Chiefs!
As they say, “Any given Sunday”. It was as much fun to watch as any game I’ve seen in a long time.
Be well,
John
John, go ahead and crow you deserve it after the Chiefs beat the Packers, it was an incredible achievement.
Jeff,
A very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family.
John
Jeff, I’m very much looking forward to spending the holiday with my children and granddaughter.
Thank you for the well wishes and I hope you and your family have a wonderful time together.
Peace on earth and good will toward all is something we can always agree on and work toward in this coming year.
At this festive time of the year my wife and I retire to our home in Connecticut for a few weeks and my daughter ( The legal aid lawyer heaven help us all)her new baby and this year only one of my sons got Christmas leave so at least some of the clan will be here. John and Jackie I would like to leave you with what I know is the meaning of this time of year ” And there were in the same country shepherds, abiding in the fields watching over their flocks by night , and lo an angel of the Lord appeared unto them and the glory of the lord shown about them and they were sore afraid, and the Angel said ” Fear not for I bring you tidings of great joy which shall be to all people, for born unto you this day in the city of David is a savior which is Christ the Lord and this shall be a sign unto you you shall find the babe lying in a manger wrapped in swaddling clothes, and suddenly the air was filled with the Heavenly Host singing “Glory to God in there highest , and on Earth Peace good will toward men”. This is what Christmas is all about guys and from all of us to all of you A very Merry Christmas and a Happy Healthy new year.
SERIOUSLY JOHN……
Jeff, it actually makes me happy to have retained a small amount of “belief” in the jolly old elf myself. The other brings me no such peace and yet I can’t properly articulate my feelings in a way that would satisfy you, I’m certain.
No shame in knowing when not to enage either.
I love John also but thankfully never like a brother.
As far as you believe in Santa Claus, I’m not surprised. That’s two fairy tales you believe in.
Jeff,
I have no idea what I may have stopped “answering queries” too? Not my style.
As far as my ego, I don’t have a big one, I just have a REALLY, REALLY
BIG DI..verce interest in intellectual knowledge.
Jackie , I still Believe in Santa Claus, just read the answer Frank Church wrote to Virginia O’hanlon in 1898 I believe it was, as far as the other subject goes John and I have discussed that a million times and he stopped answering my queries , I guess he just surrendered in the face of a superior intellect and there is no
shame in that. Anyway I love John like a brother and I’m honored to call him a friend.
No Jeff, you didn’t. You know, it’s the internet, anyone can join in.
Well Jeff, look at it this way, we’re not different, I only believe in one less god than you.
One thing I think we’re all in agreement on………
FOX NEWS SUCKS!
Well Jeff, when I was young I was certain there was only ONE Santa Claus and that he was at the North Pole. THEN….I began seeing him everywhere causing a HUGE isue for my mother during the month of December. She explained it away as his “helpers”. I bought that excuse up until about the age of 8 or 9 which was only a few short years before I began seriously questioning God and his locale.
Agree to disagree ok?
As far as “supplanting” him goes…..he enjoys the challenge. Stupidity is only entertaining until you regain consciousness.
John, sounds like I jumped into your personal social society here, but, Six Faux news just spins everything to the right they lie obfuscate and distort everything. Jackie there is only one God and he is in heaven god ‘AKA’ John is not going to allow anyone to supplant him …..not with that Ego.
“Two favorite”????
Me and who?
Actually,I wanted to note that Fox is so ludicrous lately! RT showed a clip of Greek protesters that Fox was claiming was in another place-either here or Moscow-I forgot which..Everything they do is just getting sillier and sillier.If their antics were not so damaging to the well-being of our country, I’d be laughing.
Aaahhhhhhhh …life is good:) My two favorite people are at it:)
Now I can smile again!
If I weren’t a smartass you wouldn’t allow me to post.
don’t be a smartass or i’ll have to suspend you.
“absolutely right, as usual”
Six, you’re killing me……..before long he’ll think he’s God!
Succinct and absolutely right, as usual!
