Thank You Jean Charest!

We are not hiding......I still wish people a Merry Christmas and will be attending a Hannukah dinner on Christmas Day.

Theo Caldwell: Christians don't need to hide in the festive bushes

One recent December, a tour guide on Canada’s Parliament Hill was overheard referring to the “Christmas Trees” in the main hall. When the guide’s heresy was reported to her superiors, she was firmly told that the decorated greenery were most certainly not “Christmas trees,” and a heated debate ensued as to just what to call the arboreal splendour. It was decided that guides would refer only to “Festive Bushes” for the remainder of the holiday season.

But this year, Quebec Premier Jean Charest quickly corrected an overeager staffer who declared that a “Holiday Tree” would be lighted in the provincial capital. Charest’s commonsensical statement that it was, in fact, a “Christmas Tree” was a welcome rebuke to the seasonal game of sensitivity and silly bears that goes on every year.

I lean to the right but I still have a heart and if I have a mission it is to respond to attacks on people not available to protect themselves and to point out the hypocrisy of the left at every opportunity.MY MAJOR GOAL IS HIGHLIGHT THE HYPOCRISY AND STUPIDITY OF THE LEFTISTS ON TORONTO CITY COUNCIL. Last word: In the final analysis this blog is a relief valve for my rants/raves.
