Happy New Year to all, thanks for the ping lysie.
May 2012 bring us all good health, prosperity and happiness.
And may Barack Hussein Obama be relegated to his rightful place in the ash bin of history.
I received this from a friend and thought you might get a chuckle out of it:
To my liberal, Politically Correct friends:
Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, & any other synchronous holidays practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all.
I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2012 but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make this country great. Not to imply that this country is necessarily greater than any other country anywhere in the world.
Also, this wish is made without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee(s).
To my Conservative Friends:
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
