Yes but the over reach of the Liberal's assault on Christmas goes way beyond the separation of the Church and the State. They tell companies what they can display, harass home owners, hide themed decoration on the back wall of the big retail store, hidden behind a Motor Oil display.

Bullshit. I'm a liberal. Most of my friends are liberals. We don't argue that the state should force any private individual or store not to display any symbols. We do argue for equality. If you can put a nativity scene on your lawn, I can but a Satanic orgy on mine. Fair's fair.

Why just the last year or two the Left, or Obama's special brand of it.

Obama is no liberal by any means. I hardly consider Obama a leftist. If he were white and a Republican, he'd be a poster boy for the warfare industry and big business. He's right of Reagan. Hell, he's right of Nixon.

Really? Please show us where liberals or the alleged liberal Government has done any of the above?

This reminds me of people bitching about bi-lingual signs at Home Despot. Did the PC police dictate this, as the right assumes? Or is it just businesses doing what makes sense to their business.

Hispanics shop at Home Depot...a lot. Every time I've been in there in the morning there are countless maintenance, mowing service and landscaping folks buying supplies for their day's work. It makes sense to have bilingual signs or miss out on big sales.

The big businesses for a long time trod upon the sensibilities on non-Christians. Nobody has told them not to, but they've made the same calculated decision that Home Despot did. I'm sure that Christianity )and business) will survive even without having to belittle non-Christians via a de facto state religion.
