Reagan was against Christmas, too!
Check out his holiday cards from 1981 to 1987. The last five are all against Christmas. They wish the recipient joyous "holidays."

Strangely, he wasn't ALWAYS against Christmas. In 1981 and 1982, he was FOR Christmas. But then he chnaged! What happened in 1983 to turn him against Christmas?

4. Let's see - my entire work career has been in the post-Reagan, anti-worker
years.

Sorry; it's hard to drum up respect for him. Besides, he was against Christmas.

:patriot:
