ORIGINAL: SuzanneKneeling Should we cancel Christmas, Easter and Good Friday because we started a war that has caused the deaths over 600,000 Iraqis? I'm sure at least 3,000 of those died on our holidays because FauxNews viewers were too stupid to see through their lying misleaders. Get out of your tiny mind once in awhile and listen to yourself. You may just be appalled at what you hear. I'm not sure why you are trying to link 9/11 and Iraq, Suzanne. I thought only those baa-ad old Republicans did that. Or did it just seem convenient? As the insults were probably easier for you to fling than something radical like thinking about the question? Asking "what are the chances they'll cancel the party" is a far cry demanding everbody just go to work. I see a double standard. Sorry if you have trouble grasping something like that. Did you pause before your little spew of talking points and names to consider this is the group that will riot over cartoons they find insensitive? Better to just label me and assign me a set of values than do that, huh? Religious holidays can't be cancelled, Suzanne. At least not among people whose religion means something. Thanksgiving, for example, is still Thanksgiving with the whole fam damily, or alone with booze and a steak. How you mark it is irrelevant. Ramadan floats on the calendar. This year, the timing is 'awkward.' I'll ask again. Do you think the folks who demand such tolerance and sensitivity of us will stay home with family and dear friends to dance and feast on September 11, or head out to the "cultural center" and party like it's 2001?
