Christmas is over. What holiday will we wage war on next?

Valentine's Day? Oh wait - that's SAINT Valentine's Day.

Easter?

Or Columbus Day?

3. It will probably be Valentine's Day

Remember in Kindergarten and 1st grade...you gave those funny little cards to everyone in your class. Girls gave them to other girls and boys gave them to other boys. So..........

Valentine's Day promotes the gay agenda. :sarcasm:

29. That's SAINT Valentine's Day

and how dare you try to take the sanctity away from that day by refusing to use SAINT? (Did I get the tone right?)

22. Of course he is - with a plaid jacket and bow tie and a basket of eggs

over his arm, that's a given.

But how will we wage war on it? With a SPRING break rather than an EASTER HOLIDAY?

17. Ostara

Yet another pagan holiday used to the advantage of the Christians. *sigh* Year after year I have to hear how eggs and bunnies are really based on Christian belief systems. Yeah, right.

8. Well, today is

National Bird Day, tomorrow is Bean Day, and Saturday is Cuddle Up Day, many to wage war against! And the 9th is Play God day, something I most likely could excel at!

10. Presidents day!

Bill O'Reilly will have his panties in a bunch because everyone calls it "Presidents Day" instead of "George W. Bush Day". Then he will explain how if you don't call it "George W. Bush Day", you are making the troops cry and you are under the control of the "radical left".

19. Personnally I'd like to wage war on

Lee-Jackson Day, but since that's only celebrated in Virginia, I guess it's rather pointless.

24. Hey, that's Lee-Jackson-King day (yes, as in Dr. Martin Luther King)

Edited on Thu Jan-05-06 09:08 AM by mikeytherat

Here in ol' Virginnnnnnny, we had to combine a day celebrating a civil rights leader with a day celebrating Confederate Generals 'cuz we just couldn't set aside a day for Doc King himself. And, combining it with Lee-Jackson day was, I feel, a none-too-subtle racist move.

20. Easter, of course

It's pagan anyway.

After all what does a bunny rabbit distributing brightly colored eggs have to do with nailing someone to a cross? Now, if they nailed the bunny to the cross, I would understand.

:hide:

I am so going to hell for that.

21. The fourth of July, of course,

because we all know those godless, unpatriotic liberals just use it as an excuse to overeat, get drunk, and shoot off firecrackers after decent people have gone to bed for the night. We need to return the holiday to the somber, religious, god fearing day of gratitude it was meant to be.

For those who just woke up and are slow on the uptake, :sarcasm:

37. Groundhog Day. It's got to be Groundhog Day.

As a child growing up in Idaho, I always wondered how a rodent living in Pennsylvania could tell when OUR winter was going to end.

Later, I found out: It's not JUST a groundhog. It's Satan in physical form. So we just gotta go to war against that little bastard.

Besides, if you're an asshole they make you repeat Groundhog Day over and over again until Andie MacDowell introduces you to God. I am not opposed to such theological innovations, mind you, it's just that if you're going to be forced to repeat one day a hundred times, I don't really want it to be one that's got four feet of snow on the ground.

So yeah, Groundhog Day has to be stopped.
