Talking A Clever Gift For "The Holiday"

Pass this on to your family and friends. What do you have to lose but 44 cents, what do you have to gain ----------- more than you will ever know.
What a clever idea!
Yes, Christmas cards. This is coming early so that you can get ready to include an important address to your list.

Want to have some fun this CHRISTMAS? Send the ACLU a CHRISTMAS CARD this year.

As they are working so very hard to get rid of the CHRISTMAS part of this holiday, we should all send them a nice,

CHRISTIAN card to brighten up their dark, sad, little world..

Make sure it says "Merry Christmas" on it.

Here's the address, just don't be rude or crude. (It's not the
Christian way, you know.)

ACLU
125 Broad Street
18th Floor
New York , NY 10004

Two tons of Christmas cards would freeze their operations because they wouldn't know if any were regular mail containing contributions. So spend 44 cents and tell the ACLU to leave Christmas alone. Also tell them that there is no such thing as a " Holiday Tree". . . It's always been called a CHRISTMAS TREE!

And pass this on to your email lists. We really want to communicate with the ACLU! They really DESERVE us!!

For those of you who aren't aware of them, the ACLU, (the American Civil Liberties Union) is the one suing the U.S. Government to take God, Christmas or anything Christian away from us. They represent the atheists and others in this war. Help put Christ back in Christmas!

Not to rain on your parade but this is an old myth, before I get flamed I am only saying that its not totally true. I think 90% of what the ACLU does or supports is BS, and I dont agree with what they have done on this topic.

Though the ACLU might support the celebration of Christmas privately, The union has been involved with the the removal and placements of religous displays, and Christmas displays etc...that would be considered appropriate and traditional by the majority. guess this goes in the "PC" debates, oh well.

So I say on that account lets send them post cards if yall want to. Topics like these always remind me of this song, and its a good tune...

I put together a little trifold to mail to them.
This way it arrives in a regular legal sized envelope.
it will need to be printed in duplex.
Seasons Greetings is the front of the card.
