Yes, gotta love the bible belt Definitely not somthing I miss!
I wonder if they're teaching the part about how most of The Bible was ripped off of the much earlier Sumerian and Egyptian myths and gods.

Wherever did you get that idea? I have a great time on holidays! Just because I'm capable of grasping the true history of them doesn't mean I'm trying to ruin your day, you poor sad over-defensive little man. If anything, you're the one that sounds guilt-ridden and miserable for being reminded that there's more to our national holidays than you'd like there to be.

Don't you just hate it when someone picks up the corner of your rug and shows you all the crap you've swept under there? LOL!!

Absolutely . . . and I never invite those inconsiderate and obnoxious bastages to my parties in the future. Parties are for fun and decent folk.

Indoctrination you say???? If my children would have been one of those that i've recently heard on the media being forced to sing the praises to the messiah obama during a school pta meeting, i would have gladly marched up to the stage, pulled my child out of the 'chorus line', and headed straight for the exit.....never to return to that school........because i have a choice.........but who knows for how long i have this choice.........if your messiah and his cronies continue the downfall of america, none of us will have a choice in anything....don't you libs understand this!!.....but as long as i do have choice, i'm using it.........so if you have a problem with the bible belt, and their courageous display of god and prayer in their public schools (which our country was founded on!!!), then just get your kid the crap out of there! Maybe you could put them in the same private school that all the washington elites have their kids in........ (yup! Your liberal congress and senate and your president all send their kids to private schools buddy!!) you liberals disgust me.....wake up and see what's happening! I can hardly wait for the 2010 elections....oh, and by the way..........how's that "hope and change working for yah???"
fail.
