Google Hates Christmas
Edited on Sun Dec-25-05 01:23 PM by brainshrub
Notice that this year's Google Doodle does not have the word "Christmas" in it.















Why does Google persecute Christians?


Here's the link: http://www.google.com/doodle10.html

ON EDIT: I forgot the 3rd in the sequence.

1. This is sarcasm, right?
The whole page says Christmas! Do you need to be clobbered with a hoe to see it?

Do you really need to spell it? I really did not expect this on DU, of all places.

Look at the page itself. Gawd, such comments should be on the freeper page where everything is black and white, good and evil nothing left to the imagination, to, yes, nuances. "Me Tarzan, You Jane."

Did you have trouble following some of Kerry's comments during his campaign, too?

20. Merry Christmas! (Even if you are a tad grumpy today.)
Maybe I don't see the Christmas references because of the eggnog.

13. No it all says Happy Holidays or something like that. I was looking
for "Feliz Navidad". I remember the name from the song by Jose Feliciano. And I think Navidad means Christmas.

8. Thanks, but the cuteness does detract from Goggle's hatred of Christmas.
Bill O'Reilly must be alerted at once!

They could also use our site search for webmasters, which shows the same results without the tracking.
