well, let's be honest...it wouldn't be so overly commercialized if there weren't the buyers to support it

Good things: It's one of the few times a year when you get Conservatives to even consider being compassionate outside of their inner circle.It brings people together to celebrate the birth of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, which gives him His Glory he righteously deserves.Sometimes its great to get with your relatives after not seeing them in a long time. The bad things are:implied obligations of gifts and invitations to parties.For every penny they spend on the less fortunate, they'll spend dollars on themselves, and feel good about doing so.

dtsweet.... BINGO! We, the American Consumer, feed the machine and the myths! We all grumble about how we dislike the comercialization of Christmas, yet we enable it! From a form psychologist's perspective, that is pretty sick stuff!  Kevin. I am a liberal Christian, very liberal. (But politically, I am very conservative.) But, the research and data is pretty clear. Conservatives are far more generous than liberals....lots of exceptions, but that is what the data shows.

I guess that's because of fat-cat tax cuts and ok I'll hush now. I grew up with a law against women discussing politics and relligion.
I like the Christmas candy. Especially Hersheyettes! I love Hersheyettes and they only come out on holidays and cost way too much because of the darn fake candy cane container. I hate the fake candy cane container.

doc, all kidding aside, don't you think our political people, (oh, how can I say this), or our political system, is basically something to be embarrased about. The last time our country felt good about a president, was when JFK was in office, and JFK wasn't perfect. He was good though, (in my humble opinion). Today when we go to vote, we're not voteing for the best individual, we're voteing for, who will not be the worst of 2 evils.

rico...I don't think its between two evils. I don't think we've had anyone evil run for President. But, I do think running government is a WHOLE lot more complex than 50 years ago. Plus, the electorate is more picky.

Sure, they were criminals, but I would not say they were evil. But, I did note you had to dip 40 years back in history to find an example! Woo!

well to end this mess, Harry Truman was the last good chief. JFK was OK. the rest, well one can get a pair of dice, and start shaken them. Snake eyes are gonna come up sooner than later. The country, (our country) was no better off, when each of the following chiefs left office!! However, we still live in the best country, on this planet.
