3. Christmas declared war a few weeks ago.

They won an early offensive by capturing key positions in malls and car dealerships.

7. Thanksgiving, meanwhile, in a public statement released Thursday, had this to say:

"While We admire Our good friend and colleague, Christmas, it is important to note that Christmas has a calendar date. Due to the fact that Christmas has, in effect, usurped Our position, We therefore must sadly Ourselves declare war on Christmas."

Representatives from Christmas were unavailable for comment Friday, amid rumors of heated- and sometimes haughty- negotiations between the two camps.

An AIPAC lobbyist was seen entering Santa's Workshop early Saturday. Calls to the North Pole were not answered, and messages were not returned.

11. This just in as AIPAC lobbyist was seen entering Santa's Workshop early Saturday

Edited on Sun Nov-18-07 08:22 PM by Flatline

a squad of 30 Elves, yes elves, were seen armed with sniper rifles positioning themselves around a farm where there appeared to be some sort of manger type thing with animals and people gathered around. Moments later 3 Men in strange garb were coming around the corner holding each one object in their hands, to prevent any terrorist attacks the 3 men were shot on sight and their boxes de-bombed to find out it was filled with only Gold, Frankincense, and Murr. Further investigation undergoing.

4. The war on Christmas

There should be a separation of church and state anyway. If we are going to have the government turn Christian holidays into federal holidays, then we need to it for the Muslims, the Wicca faith, the pagans, the Satanist, the Church of Scienctology, the Budhhist, Hare Krishna, the Hitteons, the Hindus, the Jews and every single religious group in America. That way it will be fair to everyone.

5. Oh, you'd better watch out, you'd better not cry,

you'd better not pout I'm tellin' you why, Santa Claus is dead.

or the old Red Foxx gag-

Dad took his shotgun out in the yard, touched off both barrels, came back inside and told us Santa Claus committed suicide.

8. Why are we fighting this War?

Seriously - it wins every single year. Christmas always win - AND - it already won this year.

Know how I know? A local drugstore had a wreath up three weekends ago and Christmas crap for sale.

I think instead - we should have a War Against St. Patrick's day. That will really get people mobilized. LOL! That one? We might be able to win.
