Merry Christmas ?

[ROKTMAN]

To My Democratic Friends:

Please accept, with no obligation (implied or implicit), my best wishes
for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress,
non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice
holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious
persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with
respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others,
or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all.

I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically
uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted
calendar year 2008, but not without due respect for the calendars of
choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped
make America great. Not to imply that America is necessarily greater
than any other country nor the only America in the Western Hemisphere.
Also, this wish is made without regard to the race, creed, color, age,
physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wish.


To My Republican Friends:

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
