Kudos to places like Wal-Mart for shoving their holiday commercials and advertising down our throats long before we put threw out the rotten pumpkins from Halloween. Wal-Mart was in a silly of a pickle this year about what to have their door greeters say to incoming customers at their stores. Everyone was real religious for about six months after 9/11 and then it fizzled out. Now, for some reason not too long after that, people
weren't too happy to hear "Merry Christmas" at the stores. Wal-Mart and Target did away with it and instead had employees say, "Happy Holidays". Now in 2006 it seems we're going back to the original way of doing things. For those who disagree, let's put Saddam, George W. and Jesus at the front doors of Target and Wal-Mart. Saddam should at least offer us a "Merry Christmas". If not for him being caught and sentenced to dangling on a rope soon, we may be in a lot more trouble than we are already. President Bush ought to greet customers at a store in his Texas hometown...why? When his term in office is over he may be working at Wal-Mart as a greeter. Besides, he's got nothing to do right now anyway besides fight with all the new Democrats that were just elected. Finally, Jesus should appear at every department or discount store at the same time. He can probably do it too! Jesus should stand in the doorway to scold everyone that walks in. Someone needs to remind the people what Christmas really is all about. Yep. Some 2000 and something years ago there were no Targets or Wal-Marts, no Elmo TMX's , Playstations or Nintendos. There certainly wasn't an eBay where people can resell these items for $20,000 each just to make some kid happy on Christmas!
