Santa doesn't believe in Global Warming

So I like Kwanzaa now.  Not because i've taken to appreciating 60's radicals or bash whiteys ceremonies, but since we are all getting so exclusive, it frees me up to say Merry White Christmas. And i don't have to switch out my blue-eyed Santa lawn toy. I can avoid the yearly societal guilt trip, "oh, is it ok to say that?" Do i HAVE to say Happy Holidays?" and doesn't Holidays have some kind of sublimal religious connotation? phew! no more worries! Now I can just concentrate on overspending. Just like our congress! ho, ho, ho. Except, i spend my own money and... wait! they do too!! One headline said they were experiencing bailout fatigue. that is so sad. writing all those checks out of our accounts, I can see how tiring that would be. Let's suggest they take a break.  Things I don't want for christmas: 1. my personal bailout- promised by the Mighty One, using my own money 2. a star named after me  3. the sham-wow!  4. year subscription to Media Matters 5. anything McCain. talk about shotgun wedding. And, since I live close to ALGORE, (though, the lights are on, but he's never home...) 6. I mostly don't want to get "carbon offsets" for christmas. He stole that idea from George Costanza's Human Fund. "carbon offsets" is just another name for "fairy dust" or, his account in the Caymans. Strangely, the atmosphere does not patch itself up when you throw money up in to the sky.  So, he must be needing some white christmas cash, because he's been getting more shrill lately. I can hear it from here, he assures us that we are all going to die. Which, ok, that is a fact, but he insists it will be in about 12 days. (give or take) Or worse, people will continue to enjoy heat and electricity! how selfish! I vote sierra club start first and stop using computers to save energy. plus, on the whole dying thing, I am betting we have at least until the new tax laws are passed. Merry White Christmas! Enjoy the eggnog and fruitcakes.
