Cash or Christianity
You make the call!

The American Family Association is keeping score on which retailers are taking Christ out of Christmas in their advertising. They call it their Naughty and Nice List, and I happen to like it. I’m thankful for free enterprise, which allows me the right to spend my money where I choose.

Victoria's Secrets againest Christmas??? Dammit, where am I going to buy my sexy underthings now???
Truly, thanks for the list. I detest the "Happy Holiday" and other such nonsense. So...Everybody have a blessed Thanksgiving and a Merry Christmas!

I don't agree with some of the items on the list. One for example is Starbucks. they actually have a "Christmas Blend", They are in the Thanks giving mode right now and have not put out their full Christmas line until after the current Holiday has passed.

But, I do like the idea of the list and thanks for posting.
