new found respect for mickey
We took the family to Disney for Christmas this year. My youngest is four and the last time we went she was till in the womb and didn't get to see much 
In a new world of political correctness with corporations removing Christmas from their employee's vocabulary the mouse proudly stands up and says Merry Christmas. The week before we left Chase bank removed the donated Christmas tree from a branch lobby for fear of offending non christian customers.
From the 70 foot Christmas tree at the front entry to every last employee the days we were on Disney property we NEVER heard "happy Holidays". Every time you get on a ride, buy a meal, get off a ride, ask a question you are left with a cheerful "Merry Christmas" regardless of your skin color or ethnicity.
We spent Christmas day at Epcot, and witnessed their "Candlelight Processional" I am not an overly religious person, but this program, ten years in the running, is worth seeing and hearing. It is a professional conducted orchestra/choir performance designed to celebrate Christmas, and the story of Mary and Joseph. It is clearly, unabashedly, christian. Narrated during our visit by Edward James Olmos the songs and the story ,as Olmos loudly insisted upon it's ending, were meant to bring Christ back into Christmas.
Again I am not overly religious but it was refreshing to go somewhere that is so clearly an American institution and see a corporation that is not afraid of its roots, it's heritage, and understands the people that made it what it is. They care about the American customer and anyone else that is visiting from another country knows they are in America and in America we celebrate Christmas.
Self control: The minds ability to override the body's urge to beat the living sh.. out of some ass.... who desperately deserves it.
The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.
