You really live in a bubble to not be aware that at many businesses, sales clerks are not allowed to say "Merry Christmas" and are told to say "Happy Holidays".

As I pointed out, people get told not to say "Christmas tree" but instead say "holiday tree". I was once corrected about that at a job I worked.

It seems to me that the lady doth protests waaaay too much! This really hits a nerve for you.

Once again, Ringo --- Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I know that I will

Oh, and BTW---Calling Trump supporters "Trumpeters" is very immature of you. I never called Hillary supporters names---always referred to them as "Hillary supporters".
Because it's BS. But - hey - if it makes you feel good to be a victim - carry on.


Psst: There are still going to be diverse businesses that stick to Happy Holidays. I work in one such
Fortune 500 Company with many diverse people with diverse beliefs.


Some are even Trump supporters.

Took you awhile to come up with a non-answer.

A victim? Nah. Not me. I think that you are projecting here. Just pointing out the facts does not make one a victim.

Are people who don't celebrate Christmas so offended if someone says it to them? According to your libs, the answer is "yes".

Oh...And you have a Merry Christmas, Ringo---and a Happy New Year! I know that I will And don't be afraid to wish others a "Merry Christmas". What's the worst that they can do to you? Give you a dirty look? Have a crying, screaming meltdown?

Here in Portland Oregon, I have heard the words "Merry Christmas" more times in the last week than I have heard them in the past several years.

Interesting in a town like this.

Wow. That didn't take long.


Do you have this bookmarked so you can respond as soon as I type a word?


It's good that you are all over this issue. Majority Christians can all sleep easy tonight.


You have a merry little Christmas yourself. See? I have no fear. I do not need Trump's permission to wish another Merry Christmas OR Happy Holidays. Never will; never did.


But you feel better now and I understand that you had some kind of anxiety about it.

[Nope. Wrong yet again

I never lost any sleep over it. Nor do I have "some kind of anxiety". Doc, you should know better than to diagnose someone you haven't seen in person. IIRC, you were one of the anti-Trumps who criticized doctors who attempted to diagnose your gal, Hillary, online. BTW, do you have a problem with Christians?

Uh huh. So, you go around wishing everybody you see a "Merry Christmas"? Somehow I doubt it.


But you feel better now and I understand that you had some kind of anxiety about it.

Again, for some reason, this whole issue struck a nerve with you. Let.it.go. You will feel better

I will say that I'm hearing more Merry Christmas from others than I've heard in years.

Yeah, the last time I've heard the most Merry Christmas was when Bill Clinton was in office.

The election results proved that.
The election didn't prove a thing other than the Republicans don't care about hacking by Russians who they used to hate. Now, they seem to be one big happy family!

What kinda irrational and unreasonable logic is that?
What would be the point of putting tariffs on his own products, if production here is not the goal.

I swear, some people cannot think past the tip of their noses, they look down on the little people with.
