Kudos to my friend on 28th Avenue for this link. A Congressional Democrat was pretty sick of the "Defend Christmas" lobby and read this original poem in protest of House Resolution 579 which "Express[es] the sense of the House of Representatives that the symbols and traditions of Christmas should be protected."
The poem is an excellent critique of this empty posturing, but my favorite part of the affair: the Republican who proposed this Congressional waste of taxpayer time refused to add other religious holidays to the resolution. Because we all enjoy religious freedom, but Christians are a little more free...
