Baby Jesus Scandal

Child Jesus - Merry Christmas!

In what can only be described as a serious breech of protocol, I noticed at least one outdoor Nativity scene last night with the Baby Jesus in full view.  Imagine.  We were on the way to an evening gathering and the deed was highlighted by lighting beamed on the manger.  Growing up we had two absolute Christmas traditions, the lighting of the Advent wreath candles, yours truly having a prominent role being the oldest child and the appearance of the Baby Jesus, magically, when we got up on the morning of the 25th.  Never was he allowed the place of honor before the 25th, matter of fact we could never figure out where our parents hid the little dude...no matter.

My first thought was to call the Mayor, thinking that there surely was a codes enforcement issue...but Jerry languishing on some beach in Florida, would put off the matter till he returned in January, too late.

On the other hand, at least the offenders were celebrating the true meaning of Christmas...Christ...mas, so what the heck, cut them some slack, right?   Although it might be the Holiday Season, the 25th is Christmas, and to that I say...Merry Christmas!

Very useful links and I am glad you shared them

This line from the one about Baby Jesus Obama was very useful and is why I keep coming back to As I See It

" If Barack Obama is the promised Messiah, I think there are going to be many Christians who are profoundly disappointed,” Jeffress told Fox News. “One only has to look at Obama’s record to understand that he is absolutely, positively not the promised One.”

Profound indeed

It is clear all Fox viewers need to be constantly reminded of Barack Hussein Obama's full name and that he is a Keynesian

What is profound is when you said 'Fox News'. The rest of us consider your source, Wacko.

Good contribution to the discourse

It should be Fox "News" however

I take Barack Hussein at his word that he is a Christian

I believe he still could be labeled a Keyesian until someone proves otherwise
