This “War on Christmas” now has hit the floor of the US House.

Rep John Dingell got up and read this SCATHING poem and dogged Bill O’Reilly and Fox News!

‘Twas the week before Christmas and all through the House
No bills were passed ’bout which Fox News could grouse;

Tax cuts for the wealthy were passed with great cheer,
So vacations in St. Barts soon would be near;

Katrina kids were nestled all snug in motel beds,
While visions of school and home danced in their heads;

In Iraq our soldiers needed supplies and a plan,
Plus nuclear weapons were being built in Iran;

Gas prices shot up, consumer confidence fell;
Americans feared we were on a fast track to…well…

Wait— we need a distraction— something divisive and wily;
A fabrication straight from the mouth of O’Reilly

We can pretend that Christmas is under attack
Hold a vote to save it— then pat ourselves on the back;

Silent Night, First Noel, Away in the Manger
Wake up Congress, they’re in no danger!

This time of year we see Christmas every where we go,
From churches, to homes, to schools, and yes…even Costco;

What we have is an attempt to divide and destroy,
When this is the season to unite us with joy

At Christmas time we’re taught to unite,
We don’t need a made-up reason to fight

So on O’Reilly, on Hannity, on Coulter, and those right wing blogs;
You should just sit back, relax…have a few egg nogs!

‘Tis the holiday season: enjoy it a pinch
With all our real problems, do we honestly need another Grinch?

So to my friends and my colleagues I say with delight,
A merry Christmas to all,

and to Bill O’Reilly…Happy Holidays.

ROFL!
Hats off to Rep Dingell!

Looks like we won! Ford has reinstated their advertising. Thanks to John at Americablog.com for keeping on top of this. Guess I will have to get rid of Calvin pissing on the Ford logo now huh?

Just got back from Toronto yesterday….had a great time!

Ran into a problem last night….I couldn’t get the temp above 60F in my condo. Heater would run for 6-7 mins and then shut off. Only way to start it back up was to reset the breaker. Turns out my filter was clogged, which was causing the circuit to break. Kinda strange. It was really too cold to sleep, so I am going to bed early tonight to make up for it.

Horrible hacking cough…I think it is the weather. It wouldn’t stop so I took a HOT shower for about 15 mins and it seemed to clear up. I so hate the winter…it is 5F/-15C right now.

Looks like they do take negative ads…but only from Republicans. Looks like the Democrats are going to do mobile billboards and newspaper ads…good for them!

Bought some Skyy Cosmo mix and made my first homemade Cosmopolitan and drank out of the new red Martini glasses I got for Christmas early. Tasty - need a shaker though…wanna buy me one from my wishlist?

Added the Calvin pissing on Ford logo to my weblog until Ford backs off getting in bed with the AFA.

Supposed get down to 2 F tonight. I so hate winter….

Went out to the gym and cancelled my membership at the tennis club I joined last summer. With this new condo, I need to start saving some money!

Hey…I have posted EVERY DAY so far this month. Here us something for Ford before I go off to dreamland. See Americablog for updates
