Comments on: The Holiday Spirit https://whynow.dumka.us/2010/12/21/the-holiday-spirit-3/ On-line Opinion Magazine...OK, it's a blog Wed, 22 Dec 2010 21:18:59 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: Bryan https://whynow.dumka.us/2010/12/21/the-holiday-spirit-3/comment-page-1/#comment-54709 Wed, 22 Dec 2010 21:18:59 +0000 http://whynow.dumka.us/?p=18295#comment-54709 I am so sick of all of these “ancient traditions” that were “beloved by the Founding Fathers” and totally beyond question. Hey, I remember most of this crap getting through Congress during the Eisenhower administration as part of the “Red Scare” pushed by a drunk from Wisconsin – Joe McCarthy.

I remember all of the holy and ancient Ten Commandment monuments that were passed out by Cecil B. deMille to promote the movie, The Ten Commandments. If McDonald’s had been bigger back then, miniature versions would have showed up in Happy Meals, not in granite on the court house lawn.

My “Christmas Spirit” got a heavy dose of Grinch with a dollop of Scrooge by having to deal with the Fundibans at the local tax collector’s office to get a vehicle registration renewed, and other business.

Ooooh, you better watch out! You better not cry!
You better not shout, I’m tellin’ you why…
Santa Claus ain’t comin’… to America.

(Sorry. That one’s not worth finishing.)

You better watch out! The pitchfork waving *True Believer’s* will be after you for Heresy (or, what the saner, more honest people call… *speaking the truth*) 😈
