Scott Walker Declares War on Christmas

When I saw this article yesterday, I was sure it was either a hoax or something from a tongue-in-cheek website — e.g. The Onion — that somebody took seriously.  But apparently not.

Last week, Governor Scott Walker's campaign sent an e-mail urging Walker's supporters to forgo buying Christmas presents for their children, and instead donate that money to Scott Walker's re-election campaign.

(Here are some links.)

And this article has a screenshot of the offending e-mail:

Straight from the Horse's Ass's Mouth.  Like they say, you can't make this shit up.

And speaking of Scott Walker, let us remember The Rude Pundit's immortal description of him: “...a man who looks like he just huffed spray paint fumes while rubbing a dead possum against his face.”

It looks like all those rightwing pundits were correct after all:  There really IS a War on Christmas.  This war isn't being waged by pagan cashiers who say “Happy Holidays” instead of “Merry Christmas.”  It's being waged by Patriotic Biblehumping Union-busting Scott Walker and his henchmen.
