Fox News Watch panelist Gabler: Fox News "pumping" Christmas "war"


Gabler from the show "Fox News Watch" lets them have it.

Watch the video here.


Wow. Usually I find Neil to be the annoying one on the show, but he was right on about this and let them have it. I am so sick of Bill O'Reilly's War on Christmas rant. I can understand some of the complaining, but when it comes to corporations, he is dead wrong.

paraphrasing: "Here is a list of companies that will just be saying happy holidays this year, not merry christmas. Are you going to shop there"

Give me a freakin break. First of all at most places you're lucky to get a "have a nice day." Second of all, Don't give me this crap about being offended that someone said something nice to you like "happy holidays." Third, companies don't have hidden secularist agendas, they're trying to conduct business and be inclusive. It's not like the executives are a bunch of atheists scheming to get rid of Christmas. (not that there's anything wrong with atheists, I am one myself. Just for the record though, I think the "atheist movement" is stupid. But O'Reilly is worse :)

Glad to see several common sense responses to this "issue" here. You know I agree 100%.

Have you seen the latest furor over the White House "holiday" cards?

I'm with you on that. Most people don't care what words you use to wish them a happy holiday season. It's the kindness that counts.
