Agreed. Save the sermon for another time and place, instead of making kids cry over Santa's safety.
That's really thoughtful of you to have more concern for fiction and a fantasy than for the future and reality. I guess under that same logic we shouldn't tell Bush that he is running a deficit because it might hurt his feelings and make him sad.

Well, I happen to live in Seattle and it works just fine... kids here are well taken care of.
Seattle may not be the per-capita cracker-eating capital of the nation, but we do have the highest rate of college education in the country.
The children better get also concerned from politicians about the Pacific waters rising up around Seattle because of Global Warming and how to cope with that. That's bound to be the real issue, not if mankind caused Global Warming and what it should do to lesson effects of it.
The mayor is way out of line! But it is Seattle, after all ~ a far-left radical haven. Poor kids. The parents should say something ~ email Bill O'Reilly. He'll fix 'em :-)

Yes, I have heard that O'Reilly wields the Felafel's of Justice.... that's bound to be pretty useful in fighting global warming.
Have you been to Seattle? Have you ever seen the mayor of Seattle (or even know his name)? Just because prayer in school is not a city priority doesn't mean that he is a lunatic.
These (from his website) are really fringe, far out wacky thoughts, huh?
Mayor Nickels' Priorities
Get Seattle Moving (transportation/infrastructure).
I don't think we put the burden of the nazis on our children, or the great depression yet we made it out just fine. Oh wait I pulled up the PSA on Youtube "Hey kids buy war bonds or Hitler will kill your grandmother."
As for your mayor's priorities, wow, that's real original I've never seen any politician say that's what they want.
Besides that, like I said in other threads, the Earth does whatever the hell it wants. If it wants to warm (be it manmade or not) it'll warm. Our gov't can't tie their shoes without spending billions of dollars, and bickering about the best way to go about it for at least a year, then when all is said and done the shoes are still untied. You think that this gov't can stop the earth from warming? You think changing out our lightbulbs will fix it? Wow, liberals are dilluted.
which priority does telling kids santa is gonna drown fall under? building stronger families? Next to san francisco, seattle is the goofyiest city on the west coast. that even beats out portland. I agree with the post that stated all he had to do was say the eco-friendly bulbs made santa happy. nuff said.

Prayer in school?? You lost me??? Who said anything about prayer in school?
Yes, I've been to Seattle MANY times ~ my brother lives and works there. I travel out 4-5 times a year, sometimes more often. I'm very much aware of the political climate there. It's a topic of conversation between my brother and I, a lot.
Prayer in school?? I'm still lost....
