Fox host Clayton Morris kicked off Thanksgiving this morning by revving up Fox’s Yuletide festival of resentment and divisiveness, otherwise known as the War on Christmas.
The excuse to play the Christmas victim - and ratchet up hatred for public schools and those who prefer to keep religion out of the public square - was yet another school that changed the term “Christmas break” to “holiday break” on its calendar. Oh, the horror!
Even though Morris acknowledged that “Christmas” is still written on its calendar on December 25th, that was not good enough for his guest, Elaine Taylor. From her angry tone, you’d think the school had forbidden its students from celebrating Christmas.
Morris was eager to help with that perception as he announced, “No more Christmas vacation!” in his introduction.
Nor did Morris challenge Taylor when she claimed that her demand to call the break “Christmas break” was “about diversity” and “allowing people to be who they are.”
Taylor went on to complain, also without any challenge, that her religious freedom was somehow infringed upon because of what the school had decided to call its holiday:
Where is our freedom? Where is our freedom in this? We’re not having the freedom to express our faith in this. It’s being censored out of the community.
Instead of a challenge, Morris closed the interview by wishing his guest good luck, thereby giving her just one more dollop of Fox News credibility.
Watch it below and get ready for War on Christmas season!
Meanwhile, I wish all our readers a happy and healthy Thanksgiving!
Have yourself a Bill O’Reilly Christmas,
On your facts be light,
Bill O’s here and all the booze is out of sight
Have yourself a Bill O’Reilly Christmas,
Bash the weak and gay,
Bill O’s here and all the booze has gone astray
There we were in olden days,
Happy long lost days before
Rush Limbaugh came on the tube,
Now we’re fed up with the bore
Though his show seems to go on forever,
Like a drunkard’s row,
Hang your iPod high upon the highest bough,
And have yourself a Bill O"Reilly Christmas now.
:^)
It’s that time of the year when our newpaper weights several pounds because of the ads, spending an hour looking for a parking place, standing in long lines while hearing that damn Little Drummer Boy carol, and of course Fox News annual war since it must sell high in the ratings for the Fox News viewers who will only shop on White Fridays only.
