Dude, or dudette, I gotta NEWSFLASH FOR YOU: when you comment on a message board, and you comment on the subject that launched the thread, then unless you make it damned clear -- the correct assumption is that you were commenting on the article. To comment on something else means you were just wasting folks' time with a ridiculous drive by comment.
If you think it is ridiculous to be found wishing our country had a culture godly enough to agree, voluntarily, to thank God on a day set aside for such gratitude, then we have far less in common than I thought.
BTW, thanks for teaching me that new rule. You know, the one where if I post on a lefty article and fail to explicitly disavow all the corrupt, commie assumptions of the text, I will be presumed to be a communist sympathizer until I clarify otherwise. Good. I’ll remember that. Just for you. :)
