Re: Are we still in AMERICA!!!! or what.....
i would tell them to take there winter fest and shove it up thier arses. its christmas for petes sake. that is what is wrong with this country right now. this is what they are teaching your kids and as parents if you guys dont take a stand it wont get any better, you can count on that for shure. hey its only gotten worse. iam not say you arent taking a stand , but parents in general. only you guys can change things in public schools. the rest of us as americans can change the rest, but only if you get involved most people dont want to be bothered and just take whats handed to them. little pupets is what we have become. last time i looked IN GOD WE TRUST is still on the money

Re: Are we still in AMERICA!!!! or what.....
Sing what you want and fall back on freedom of speech. Otherwise they are restricting your right to political and religeous expression. If you feel up to it ask them to put the decision to a class vote. Very democratic I would say.
Otherwise tell them to F.O. As for who started this crap. Just about everyone of those who have done so is a Democrat. |

Re: Are we still in AMERICA!!!! or what.....
I am not a christian, but that doesnt stop me from singing christmas carols with my kids or buying presents for myself.
If you feel your request for permission will be rejected, ask for forgiveness after the fact. Works for me in these situations, thank god for christians. |

Re: Are we still in AMERICA!!!! or what.....
why would that offend anyone you play your songs and if they want to come in and educate you on their beleifs and sing their songs go ahead. christmas is part of american culture I hate when people think you are offending them tell them you are offended that you cant sing your tradional songs thats such bs. people come here and want to make it like where they come from. then go there. this is our culture. I dont get mad when i see a jewish star or manora.every one is such a cry baby nowadays. 3dddd your right on.

Re: Are we still in AMERICA!!!! or what.....
Im at home right now singing Christmas songs with my kids. They are young and dont need to see the animosity to such "idiocracy".... They will know the truth by what we do and hope that our humble selves will be there inspiration to be better adults.
Remember, Turn the other Cheek .... My brother has a different approach, shoot em all let God sort them out |

Re: Are we still in AMERICA!!!! or what.....
It's Christmas. This is the same reason I am giving my business to target this year, they have the balls to call it Christmas in their commercials. I would like to see all the people that don't want you using the word Christmas to go to work on the 25th and quit bitchin.

Re: Are we still in AMERICA!!!! or what.....
Seriously if I want to talk about God and Jesus then I am going to. I really hate his politically correct liberalism that is spreading across this great nation.
I just hope we don't turn into a nation of pansies. The introduction to one unit I served with was probably enough to be offensive to most. Then again the phrase echoed through my training was "Train to Kill...Kill I will!" Hopefully someone does not get offended by that. Remember some guy trying to kill you is not going to be nice when you get offended by that. I guess its American - Land of the free as we let you be. Freedom of speech so long as it does not offend anyone. May (some non offensive politically correct entity that is not necessarily a greater being) Bless America! |

Re: Are we still in AMERICA!!!! or what.....
Sorry you have to contend with such misguided people. The First Amendment to our Constitution says, in part,
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;..............." So, the Congress can't do that but the local dictators can, apparently? That's wrong. School is a place of learning. Help the kids learn the right things. |

Re: Are we still in AMERICA!!!! or what.....
My opinion is that schools here in America are lately nothing more than babysitters. Not to put teachers down because I know they have a tough job. I just do not see any excuse for such a large number of kids we get to take the ASVAB test scoring so incredibly low. Its a shame that the military might be the best choice but the school system just pushes them through without really giving them the education they need to survive.
Don't get me started on the business of education. Higher education facilities have gone out of control with what they charge. I know plenty of folks with 4-6 year degrees working below their education level. There are plenty of vocations that you can still make a great living. I really think its wrong to sell these kids on a college education to put them in debt for about $50k or more out the gates and then start them at relatively low paying jobs. |
