I am so worn down from the blowhards on the right, who insist that that liberals hate Christmas.

This is a concerted public-relations ploy--developed by Karl Rove and Company--in the bowels of some dark room--as they smoked their cigars and drank cognac.

"Hey Karl, I like your idea about positioning the liberals are Santa bashers, Jesus haters and Christmas Grinches. This works baby. It sings. We'll use our mouthpieces in talk radio to spread the word that when liberals hear "Away in a Manger", their heads spin. If we spread rumors that the liberals want to murder Christmas carolers and drown the Christians in egg nog--because their hearts are ten sizes too small--we may be able to cull more votes for 06."

A person who actually believes that liberals hate Christmas--is a misguided, naive sucker who needs to wake up the real spirit of Christmas.

The spirit of Christmas is about love, peace and joy. It's not about feeling superior and hating half of the country because Rush Limbaugh starts rumors or because Sean Hannity's ill-informed negativity is so captivating.

I'm off now--to hang up some more Christmas lights and make cut-out sugar cookies with my kids.
