A Great Christmas Poem!

Twas the month before Christmas,
And all through our land,
Not a Christian was praying,
Nor taking a stand.

See the PC Police had taken away,
The reason for Christmas-no one could say.

The children were told by their schools not to sing,
About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.
It might hurt peoples' feelings, the teachers would say.
December 25th is just a "Holiday".

Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks, and credit.
Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it.
CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an iPod
Something was changing, something quite odd!

Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa
In hopes to sell books by Franken and Fonda.

As Targets were hanging their trees upside down
At Lowe's the word Christmas was no where to be found.
At K-mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears
You wont hear the word Christmas, it wont touch your ears.

Inclusive, sensitive, di-ver-si-ty are words that were used to intimidate you and me.
Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Kennedy, Wolf Blitzer
On Boxer,On Rather, On Kerry, On Clinton!
At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter
To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.

And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith
Forbidden to speak of Salvation and Grace.
The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded.
The reason for the season, stopped before it started.
So as you celebrate
"Winter Break" under your "Dream Tree"
Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.
Choose your words carefully,
choose what you say
Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS, not Happy Holiday!
