I know they talked about protests in DC and had some reporter on K street where a "limo was burning and putting out acrid smoke and I can hardly breathe " and then they switched to three reporters talking about how the celebration was going on and some dude said "liberals have no core values" I'm thinking eff you we have more values that are central to caring about the planet and each other. Then some missionary from Guatemala said "we can finally say Merry Christmas." I guess in Guatemala they couldn't because I've been saying Merry Christmas for years! No there is not a frickin war on Christmas and if she's in Guatemala how would she know.
