Got this at a TH blog, watch the video of the “View crew” talking about this….so has President Bush. Barbara Walters was shocked, shocked I say
that she received a Christmas card that proclaimed Jesus as Lord. Then
she fretted, “Now does this……

…before any smart-ass commenter chimes in…

Curses, foiled again. That wasn’t my exact idea for a comment, but you’ve just ruined it now anyway.

“Dear Barbara,
Merry CHRISTmas! May you celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in His peace and joy. Jesus loves you and wants you back.
CHRISTmas love, sandy

The site is really slow. I’m thinking a few people may have emailed her.

They’re turning me into a self-hating atheist, dude.

Well AP, your always welcome to join our side and we’d be glad to have you. Merry Christmas.

Easy there killer. Don’t get mad. Get even. Hmmm. Now why am I trying to think of a way to get even with Barbra Walters again??

Send her another pair of Rosie-O’s britches. That’s a way to et even with anybody.

Perhaps if Barbara Walters were smart enough to deconstruct the word “Christmas.” Hmmm… Now what possible two words could those be? Chris Thomas… never heard of him.

I wonder, Barb…

Would a non-religious Christmas card even make sense?
……

“Hey moron, it’s a RELIGIOUS holiday!”

Dumb *#%@.

Says it all about the level of discourse on that show.

So always try a refresh first, before reporting an actual problem.

P.S. I don’t think this used to be the case, but I’ve noticed it over the last couple of months or so.

At the Catholic League, Donohue had just announced a boycott of the Lands’ End catalogue when he received his White House holiday card. True, he said, the Bushes included a verse from Psalm 28, but Psalms are in the Old Testament and do not mention Jesus’ birth.

Heck, the Left were furious when Dick Cheney quoted Benjamin Franklin – “And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without His aid ?”

I was kidding :)-

I was thinking that she probably gave money to Bloomberg which might have gotten her on the A list for Christmas cards, but then I realized that objective media mavens (cough cough) aren’t supposed to donate to campaigns.

I mean, heck…even if you hate the current administration, if a few years you could probably get a few bucks for it on e-bay, right?

They’re turning me into a self-hating atheist, dude.

Not me AP; long ago I realized that in terms of modern day atheism (outspoken atheism, or more acurately, “spoken for atheists”), I simply do not share their faith.

I thought of that but if she is this upset over a religious Christmas card, I find it highly unlikely that she contributed.

I was kidding :)-

Isn’t Barbara Walters Jewish?

What’s her poblem?

Barbara, you received a Christmas Card from the President of the United States and the White House.

I never received a Christmas Card from the White House, and I think it would be nice to receive one, even one which quotes Nehemiah about the Lord as Creator of all.

I expected brain dead comments and banter from the women of “The View” regading a subject like this, and they did not disappoint!

Barbara, what if the card had one of the wonderful songs from “Songs of Kabir” by Saint Kabir of Benares? Would you have something to say about that also?

No good deed goes unpunished!

Another reason why I do not tune in to “The View.”
