Comments about ‘Letter: Reinvent Christmas to focus less on 'me, me, me'’

This is one thing that really irritates me about the conservative-invented war on Christmas. If you've ever stood in a Black Friday (or Black Thursday, now) line and fought the crowds to grab the door buster LED TV or whatnot, you have lost all rights to become upset if I wish you a "Happy Holidays".

If you believe it is godless, secular liberals destroying Christmas, you need to open your eyes.

Christmas can be what religion should also be. Personal. You can make of it what you will. Yes, our society gets greedy and approaches it with crass commercialism, but that doesn't mean that any one person or family has to follow suit. Happy holidays!!

Haven't you heard the new Christmas carol?

Tis the season to be greedy,
Gimmie, gimmie, gimmie and gimmie some more.
Bring your credit card to WalMart,
Spend it, spend it, and spend it some more.

It's all about stimulating the economy.

Christmas began on September 1 this year, or so it seemed whenever I walked into any place of business. I was tired of it long before the radio stations all decided to blast nothing but carols for the entire month of December. I do enjoy Christmas carols, but not every day all day. Thankfully I have a CD player in the car.
