O’Reilly declares a ‘great victory’ in ‘War on Christmas.’
Earlier this month, ThinkProgress noted that Fox News host Bill O’Reilly had reignited his annual conniption fit over a perceived “War on Christmas,” taking aim at the Fort Collins, CO City Council’s consideration of a plan to eschew publicly-funded displays of traditional Christmas decorations. Last week, the council voted to continue using traditional decorations. Now O’Reilly is gloating, calling it “a great victory” in his War:
BILL O’REILLY: Also in Fort Collins, Colorado, the anti-Christmas task force, which recommended banning traditional decorations on public property has been rebuffed. The folks said no. …It’s a great victory.

November 28th, 2007 at 2:15 pmDoes this mean Bill O’Reilly is going to do a USO Tour and visit the Christian Soldiers in Fort Collins now??
Maybe he’ll bring Dr. Laura along. I hear she’s been anxious to get a free USO vacation too…
November 28th, 2007 at 2:16 pmSo does this mean Mr. Henkie is free to smear his Christmas poo on
November 28th, 2007 at 2:17 pmpoorly drawn cartoon characters again? Hideeho!
I am so glad this gets covered. I mean it is nice that someone can finally report on what is important and take some focus away from the TWO ACTUAL WARS going on.
I mean with Christmas nearing extinction, it is good someone will take up the cause. Who cares that disabled Iraq Veterans are waiting 6+ months before getting their benefits when someone is trying to exterminate Christmas!
November 28th, 2007 at 2:17 pmIf O’Reilly is reporting on a war on Christmas, and the town voted against banning traditional displays, wouldn’t it be a great defeat in the war as opposed to a victory?
November 28th, 2007 at 2:18 pmOhhhhhh, crap.
Billo’s been hitting the cooking sherry again.
November 28th, 2007 at 2:20 pmI just feel sorry for this guy.
November 28th, 2007 at 2:21 pmmaybe there declaring victory cause the troops have to leave 31st dec 07
November 28th, 2007 at 2:21 pmWe should be grateful that O’Reilly concentrates on non issues like this rather than focusing all that stupid on important issues. The country is in enough trouble without him messing it up any more.
November 28th, 2007 at 2:21 pmHmmm… reading about this it seems that the City Council was not voting to ‘exclude’ Christmas, but to ‘include’ other religious observances and symbols (such as a menorah) along with the more Christian Symbols.
Why does Bill O’Reilly hate Americans?
November 28th, 2007 at 2:25 pmIf O’Reilly is reporting on a war on Christmas, and the town voted against banning traditional displays, wouldn’t it be a great defeat in the war as opposed to a victory?
Comment by Squegeeboo — November 28, 2007 @ 2:18 pm
What Bill seems to ignore is that the council also voted for an all-faith holiday display that will include a nativity scene, a Wiccan yule log, a Menorah, a Baha’i 9-point star, and holiday symbols eight other feiths. So it’s also a victory in the War on Solstice and the War on Hannukah and the War on Diwaniya and others.

But but but then we’d have nobody to make fun of. :(
November 28th, 2007 at 2:26 pmOkay, I realize Bill-O is a moron, but what about the underlying topic here. I mean, isn’t it pretty ridiculous for the ACLU to try to ban Christmas decorations??
It is stupid for Bill-O to claim a victory in his pretend war, but its also pretty stupid to try to ban Christmas decorations.

Pass me my Unknown American bag, wouldja? Sheesh.
November 28th, 2007 at 2:28 pmI can’t decide what’s phonier, the “War on Christmas” or “Islamofascism”.
Hmmm….
November 28th, 2007 at 2:28 pmYou can always claim victories for wars that don’t exist….run with it, Bill-O, your desperation for relevance is only growing.
November 28th, 2007 at 2:29 pmBill O. is a pathetic, sad little man with millions of dollars and not a single friend in the world. When his reign of terror ends along with Bush’s, he will be forgotten. And that will be his comeuppance for the damage he helped Bush do to this country. I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if we read one day that he’s committed suicide.
November 28th, 2007 at 2:31 pmI celebrate Christmas in the grand American tradition of having absolutely nothing to do with Christianity. I revel in the fact that I celebrate only secular aspects of the holiday. Crass commercialization, false idols, pagan rituals, bring it on!
November 28th, 2007 at 2:32 pmI lost good friends in the War on Diwaniya.
November 28th, 2007 at 2:33 pmKnucklehead Bill-O is just getting nauseating. Bill-O has no new material called “the news” so he has to rehash his crapola spin on the War on Christmas.
November 28th, 2007 at 2:34 pmI read both of the articles linked from this story - and I have to say that someone ought to have a little chat with that woman who opined that including symbols of other winter celebrations was “political correctness run amuck.”
Evidently that genius doesn’t get that without all those symbols of other winter celebrations that we include in our current Christmas tradition, well, there wouldn’t be much left over for all that decoratin’.
Sheesh.
November 28th, 2007 at 2:36 pmDoes this mean he’ll shut up about the whole “War on Christmas” early and give us a break?
November 28th, 2007 at 2:38 pmHas anyone noticed the Christmas War starts earlier every year? This year it started so early, hardly anyone even noticed the fanatical evangelical Christian’s War on Halloween.

November 28th, 2007 at 2:41 pmDoes the term “War is Hell” apply here. And if it does, isn’t that a sin? Daryll?
November 28th, 2007 at 2:47 pmWe should declare a War on STUPID, but when you win Bill 0-IQ will be just as stupid along with the rest of the neanderturd 24%ers. You just can’t fix stupid.
I’m an atheist but every year I decorate the house with Christmas stuff, this year my wife says she is gonna do it…which means…no decorations at all. 8-(

November 28th, 2007 at 3:05 pmApparently this “war” is only on Bill-o’s radar. The rest of us couldn’t really give a flip over whether Fort Collins chooses white lights or colored ones.
So now that victory has been declared, what’s his next non-issue going to be?
November 28th, 2007 at 3:08 pmWith the holidays upon us, I’ve been reminiscing about TP threads past, about TP trolls past.

Any holiday, person, place, loofa, and anything else Bill-O vouches for should be thoroughly investigated by the Congress. Perhaps it’s not good for America after all.

Well, Reagan said trees cause pollution. Maybe he could start a War on Arbor Day.
November 28th, 2007 at 3:13 pmOf course, Bildo’s declaration of victory in the War on Christmas leads to the question: is it time to pull our troops out?

You’re such a liar. Target was never prevented from putting up a Merry Christmas banner. You and the truth are absolute, lifelong strangers.
I hope you get the flu for Christmas, you sick piece of shit.
November 28th, 2007 at 3:31 pmThankfully, all the foolish anti-Christmas bullcrap hasn’t come to northwestern New Mexico. The city-sponsored Christmas decor is already gracing our local streets. And in the local schools, they still allow the religious themed Christmas songs to be sung during the Christmas plays…religious inspired verses intact.
Merry Christmas to ya’ all!
Comment by O. Bigfoot — November 28, 2007 @ 3:22 pm
that’s nice. but you don’t have loofahs and falafel hanging from yours christmas trees like billy does, do you? because, unless you do, it’s obvious that your community in nw new mexico hates baby jesus.
eh?
November 28th, 2007 at 3:31 pm“And in the local schools, they still allow the religious themed Christmas songs to be sung during the Christmas plays…religious inspired verses intact.”
Showing no respect for the Constitution or America, no wonder you cheer them on, being an america-hater born and bred. Traitor.
November 28th, 2007 at 3:32 pmNo loss for progressives. Just a fabricated “War” with meaningless victories. The truth is religion is best when it comes from within and not dictated by the decorations seen on the side of the road. All my readings of the Bible lead me to believe that christ himself wouldn’t care for the celebration when he looked at the other 363 (sometimes 364) days of the year.
Mr. O. Bigfoot, I do wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I also wish you to be more understanding of the falsehoods that have kept you behind a president and administration that does not have America’s best interests at hear.
No loss that B.O. claims victory. It’s only in his head.
November 28th, 2007 at 3:33 pmIt looks like it’s time to get the ACLU into new Mexico, to prevent the crazed Christianists from forcing their superstitions down poor children’s throats.
November 28th, 2007 at 3:33 pmI see our local Target store has a big “Merry Christmas†banner over their entryway this year. It’s about 10 feet wide….last year they weren’t allowed to put one up. Guess the people have spoken there also.
Comment by O. Bigfoot
Wow! Last year Target wasn’t allowed to put up a “Merry Christmas” banner?!?! Who stopped them? Do you have names? Do you know where these people live? We should call the police!
November 28th, 2007 at 3:34 pmIt must really suck to be a conservative these days. It’s so bad, it seems, that they have to convince themselves that progressives are anti-Christmas and then they congratulate themselves as if they’ve won some kind of victory when someone puts up Christmas lights.
Kinda pathetic.
Oh well, after their domestic policies have wrecked the middle class and tanked the economy, and their foreign policies have entangled our military in the middle of a civil war, while their party is imploding under the weight of mass corruption, obstructionsim and incompetence, I guess they don’t have a lot else to look forward to.
Let’s let them believe that they’ve struck some mighty blow against the forces of “darkness”. If you look at them like they’re characters in a sitcom, then they become funny, not sad.

And who “directed [Target] to utter nothing but ‘Happy Holidays’ during the Christmas season”? That’s not right! We need to get to the bottom of these threats against Target! Please, if you have any information on the dastardly villians who stopped Target from putting up items of “religious signifigance†call your local law enforcement immediately.

November 28th, 2007 at 3:50 pmAnd let’s have a round of applause for Bigtool once again missing the point. And that is Biggoof that nobody is against anybody celebrating Christmas. Some people would just like other holidays to also be celebrated. But you wouldn’t understand, you never do.
November 28th, 2007 at 3:51 pm#58 so a CORPORATE or MANAGEMENT decision on a banner and a greeting is your basis for saying they were prevented or not allowed to say merry Christmas or whatever is your basis? Wow, do you work for BillO because your logic makes no sense. Also why didn’t your wife quit the Christ hating corporate entity known as Target? Why did and does she continue to support an organization that obviously is at odds with your personal beliefs? It’s not like a job at Target would be hard to replace I mean there is always Wal Mart, K Mart or other large retailers out there.
#62 obviously you have no clue as to how the constitution or declaration of independence came about. Perhaps it is time for you to re-visit your American history. Besides the establishment clause, where is there a religious reference in the constitution? From my understanding of American history, granted I went to College, a bastion of hateful liberalism, and I read books with reality based factual evidence in them, so I probably have not been educated in a conservative manner like you. Anyways from my understanding of American history the founders, or at least those who contributed heavily to the constitution and declaration where generally influenced by the French philosophers and the rights of man etc… These thoughts may also have religious parallels, but in general they were moving away from religion and religious based interference in government. You might want to read a few Bio’s like Franklins’, Jeffersons’, Hamiltons’, try Jeffersons’ bible and his comments on Christianity, also check out Madisons’ remonstrance…and follow those up with the federalist papers. It will really throw you for a loop. Me? Those readings simply reinforced what I had been taught all my life. You and your Christian Taliban are not what this country is all about regardless of what you might want to think and what you might want others to believe.

November 28th, 2007 at 3:52 pmAttention in school? I went to school in Northern Idaho, where they still, at least then, taught the truth about U.S. history. Sorry, LP, but the ‘Progressive†agenda hasn’t touched the heart of this nation. That’s why when it’s brought to light, the “Progressive†agenda loses.
Comment by O. Bigfoot — November 28, 2007 @ 3:51 pm
oh yeah? what part of “northern idaho” may i ask?
November 28th, 2007 at 3:53 pmIf the Constitution is based on divine principles, why isn’t God (and I’m assuming the Protestant God here) mentioned in the document as being the source.
You’d think that if the Founders, if they were true Christians, that they would at least give a shout-out to the God in the Preamble. But no mention of Him anywhere as being the source of our country’s main document.
It’s kind of like how I had an argument with my mother-in-law about the divine inspiration in the Declaration of Independence. Her point was the two references of “nature’s god” (with ‘god’ in lower case)and “creator”, and how this was proof that the Founders were inspired by God. I said that if they intented to make a reference to God, then why didn’t they just include the word “God”? Were they afraid of offending non-Christians or something. She really couldn’t give me anything resembling a good reply.
My wife says I can’t debate her mom anymore because of that.

Comment by O. Bigfoot — November 28, 2007 @ 3:55 pm
Not quite.
Today, most Americans blend religious and secular customs with their own family traditions. Thus, even though Christmas is for many Americans a religious occasion, the federal courts have upheld its status as a legal holiday. As one court reasoned, “by giving federal employees a paid vacation day on Christmas, the government is doing no more than recognizing the cultural significance of the holiday.â€

November 28th, 2007 at 4:06 pmIt does my heart good to know that we still have people (Bill O’Reilly) who will not allow Secular-Progressive groups like the ACLU to remove Jesus from our society. This is the reason why my wife and I our traveling to Rio De Janeiro in three weeks. We must inform the Cariocas what thus saith the Lord. I do not believe in Christmas because it is a pagan holiday, but I do thank God everyday for people like Bill O’Reilly, who refuse to be silent and allow God’s name to be removed from society.
November 28th, 2007 at 4:06 pmSo when will O’Leilly begin labeling the earliest immigrants to the United States as traitors to their home countries? For many, it seems that they came here to escape from the ravages that ensue when church and state are indistinguishable.
Ft. Collins, huh? One more place I don’t have to worry about including in my future travel plans.
I’m sure it will now be so overrun with Reich Wing christofascists that it would be impossible to find a parking space there anyway.

This marks the lowest grade of ignorance, of which their political as well as religious leaders will always avail themselves for their own purpose.” — Thomas Jefferson to Baron von Humboldt, 1813
“What influence in fact have ecclesiastical establishments had on Civil Society? In some instances they have been seen to erect a spiritual tyranny on the ruins of the Civil authority; in many instances they have been seen upholding the thrones of political tyranny: in no instance have they been seen the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wished to subvert the public liberty, may have found an established Clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just Government instituted to secure & perpetuate it needs them not.†— James Madison
November 28th, 2007 at 4:07 pmThat’s why when it’s brought to light, the “Progressive†agenda loses.
Comment by O. Bigfoot — November 28, 2007 @ 3:51 pm
the progressive agenda always wins in a free America, from the very founding of the country, a liberal democracy, dedicated to human rights, the opposite of the conservative agenda. the Progressive agenda has won for over 200 years, making this the most widely-admired country on the planet, until the conservative liars stole elections and destroyed the credibility of the USA. You revel in being totally wrong, bigfoot, but it is the only thing you’re any good at.
November 28th, 2007 at 4:08 pmSo bigfoot why don’t you cite your evidence as to why you believe the constitution is a religiously inspired documennt? Use the words of the founders, heck the federalist papers, the only legit document on the thought process for writing the constitution, should be your starting and finishing point. Let me know what I missed from Mr Jay, Mr Hamilton and Mr Madison when they wrote their essays.

There are three allusions to Christianity in the Constitution of the U.S.
The first allusion is the first amendment itself.
Writings of those who worked on the amendment and of those who were closer to the time of the writing make it clear that the amendment is there so that there would not be a denominational test – choosing one Christian denomination over another - for public office. Nothing about this amendment suggests that the intent is to place any other belief system on par with Christianity or that God is to be removed from the public square. At the time of the writing many of the states had “state religions.â€
The second allusion is the number of days allowed to accomplish certain business of the government. Sunday is not counted as a business day. Sunday is the day of worship for Christians.
The third allusion is the dating of the document. The phrase “In the year of our Lord…†is used. I assume A.D. was available to the authors.

And why did you choose to contrast “personal experience” (which didn’t exist in this case anyway) with ” mere theory tought by someone who’s never done anything remotely close to what they are attempting to teach about”? Seems like a textbook case of A Strawman argument.

No, that’s a lie. The late December holiday season has been celebrated in the West since Pagan times. Most of our holiday traditions come from Saturnalia and Yule. The early Christian settlers in America understood the Pagan origins of “Christmas” and outlawed the holiday.

No one is trying to ban Christ from being mentioned in the public square. The public square is an appropriate forum for religious expression because people are free to come and go and ignore what is said there. But people are not free to ignore the government, so the goverbnment must be neutral on religious matters, in other words, secular.
You can express your religion IN the public square, but not WITH the public square.

Benjamin Franklin did not appear to be a huge fan of Christianity. About the topic, he was quoted as follows:
“If we look back into history for the character of the present sects in Christianity, we shall find few that have not in their turns been persecutors, and complainers of persecution. The primitive Christians thought persecution extremely wrong in the Pagans, but practiced it on one another. The first Protestants of the Church of England blamed persecution in the Romish Church, but practiced it upon the Puritans. They found it wrong in Bishops, but fell into the practice themselves both there (England) and in New England.”
It certainly would seem that John Adams, our second president, was not a major promoter of Christianity. Please consider the following quote:
“I almost shudder at the thought of alluding to the most fatal example of the abuses of grief which the history of mankind has preserved–the Cross. Consider what calamities that engine of grief has produced!” — John Adams, letter to Thomas Jefferson
And are you sure that Thomas Jefferson supported Christianity:
“The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no God. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg. Our civil rights have no dependence on our religious opinions, any more than our opinions in physics or geometry.”
Twenty gods or no god? Which Christian denomination provides such a degree of latitude?
Do you suppose that Christianity as practiced in Salem, MA (circa 1619) might what the Founding Fathers had mind–or not?
Anyone who pays taxes in this country is already supporting (financially, at least) Christian denominations in this country. The U. S. government collects taxes from most of us (except the very rich) and then hands it over to the “right” Christian denominations as part of the program for faith-based initiatives. Whether we like it or not, we have no choice (short of voting the scoundrels out of office) as to whether we will place our hard-earned money in the offering plate, which plate we will place it in, or how much we will be required to donate.
In fact, how many of you have received a notice from the I. R. S., enumerating for you how much of your tax bill went to church-based organizations? At the very least, you should be able to deduct it as a charitable contribution.
We should also receive an accounting of how well their program worked in repairing the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina.

November 28th, 2007 at 4:55 pm“Modern Christianity has adopted the religious meaning of Christmas as it’s own”
That doesn’t make sense. What is the “religious meaning” of Christmas that “modern” Christianity had to adopt? Christmas is “Christ Mass”, a church service. The church chose to observe the Christ Mass during the ongoing and very popular winter solstice holiday season. It’s a case of mutual accomodation.
But most of our holiday customs were invented by the pagans to brighten up the longest nights of the year. Therefore, that’s the TRUE meaning of Christmas.
And it’s a federa holiday merely because most people want to take off work that day. No further rationalization is needed. You wouldn’t want the government to respect the establishment of relgion, would you?

We will not continue to be the nation we want to be without the influence of Christianity and the Bible.
Paraphrasing Judge Moore here our rights are unalienable because they were given by God. If these rights are given by men, then men can, and will, take them away.
