You can always count on Monica Crowley to come up with an inflammatory conspiracy theory about the left and last night’s discussion on The O’Reilly Factor about the so-called War on Christmas was no exception. Crowley’s latest attack, in the form of victimhood, was to accuse the left of engaging in an “assault” on “all organized religion” so that there can be a "Godless society" and government can fill that void and take over. Seriously.

With her smug grin, Crowley crowed about how O’Reilly “clobbers” Governor Lincoln Chafee “every year” in the War on Christmas. Doesn’t that just show you how in touch she is with Jesus! But there was more Crowley holiday cheer to come:

There is something bigger going on, which is over many decades, the secular progressives, the far left have been doing this assault on all organized religion, on God and on faith. Recently – and you’ve been pointing this out for years on this show – it’s been the war on Christmas. But the ultimate objective, which is what they seek, is an essentially Godless society. Because they want the state to fill the void of God. So they will do everything they can to try to strip organized religion, God and faith out of the public square, out of public life, so that the state, so that government is there to fill that void and to save people when they no longer have religion.

The other guest, Alan Colmes, looked as though he were about to come out of his seat. “That’s ridiculous,” he told her. Later, he said, “Progressives aren’t opposed to organized faith. It’s a matter of what the government should do. Conservatives always talk about how they want less government in their lives. You want government involved in declaring what should be violating the Establishment Clause of the Constitution?”

Interestingly, nobody had an answer to that.
