All you need to know that the War on Christmas is hogwash is to walk out your front door.

I dunno know about you but I live in Texas, where tacky whoop-te-do is considered an art form.  My entire street is lit up like an oil refinery.  On clear nights we can be seen from the damn moon.

You cannot go into a store without hearing elevator Christmas tunes and the hawking of wares nobody on this planet really needs.  Well, unless they are shiny.  If they are shiny, then you really need them.  I even have shiny house shoes.  I know, eat your heart out.

Back to Fox News:  their latest fake WOC story comes from Georgia.  Yes, Georgia – Queen of the Bible Belt.

Fox News’ Todd Starnes accused a Georgia elementary school of “confiscating” Christmas cards in an effort to stifle religious expression, prompting outrage from residents and threats of corrective legislation from Georgia lawmakers. But according to the school district, Starnes’ allegations are completely false.

There is a tradition of teachers bringing a copy of the Christmas card they send out to share with other teachers.  They are displayed for the teachers to see.  That display was moved to the teacher’s lounge this year due to safety concerns and, boy howdy, is the principal flippin’ mad about the Fox News story.  Apparently, it has interrupted the school day.

Unfortunately, today the school was terrorized by an intentional and vicious dissemination of untrue information that disrupted the good work going on inside.  Fox News Radio Commentary Host Todd Starnes, acting on misinformation that neither he, nor his media outlet corroborated with the school system or Baker, misreported a story about student Christmas Cards being removed from the school. Baker did not receive any questions from the local community either.

The Atlanta Journal Constitution got in on the act, too.  They describe a “school that obviously has no problem with Christmas trees. Or holiday artwork by students. Or Christmas cards. No one has been asked not to say “Merry Christmas.””

Moving one Christmas card display does not a war make.  Even if it’s Hitler.
