Boycotting stores for using the phrase "Happy holidays"? I guess it saves people from the effort of doing something charitable ...

Lordy lordy lordy! Let's suppose they do boycott every store out there .... any bets that better than 90 percent of all the gifts they buy elsewhere will have a little sticker on them somewhere that sez 'Made in China' ?

OMG. What a bunch of freaks.
Some people really have too much time, and money, in their hands.

Dio - it's a flash movie, basically bithcing out people who get uptight and throw a fit over the use of Merry Christmas instead of Happy Holidays, and the wanton cutting out of christmas related things from the season.

Basically the other side of the coin.

This whole issue is really getting out of hand in both ways.

To get upset over christmas related songs, words, or images is ridiculous.

To threaten legal action against stores that do not tell you "Merry Christmas" is totally asinine.

People are obviously in need of greater adversity in their lives, if they have the timie to make issues of these things.
