Everyone in the blogosphere seems to be blogging about this message they're getting in the email. I got one too, so after you read it, or if you've already read it before, go to the bottom and read my take on the idea.
This is coming early (really early) so that you can get ready to include an important address to your list.
Read on........ What a GREAT idea!Fun with the ACLU......Wanna have some fun this CHRISTMAS? Send the ACLU a CHRISTMAS CARD this year.
As they are working so very hard to get rid of the CHRISTMAS part of this holiday, we should all send them a nice, CHRISTIAN, card to brighten up their dark, sad, little world.
Make sure it says "Merry Christmas" on it.
Here's the Address, just don't be rude or crude. (It's Not the Christian Way, you know!)
ACLU
125 Broad Street
18th Floor
New York, NY 10004
Two tons of Christmas cards would freeze their operations because they wouldn't know if any were regular mail containing contributions. So spend 39 cents and tell the ACLU to leave Christmas alone. Also tell them that there is no such thing as a "Holiday Tree". . . . It's a Christmas Tree even in the fields!!
And pass this on to your email lists. We really want to communicate with the ACLU! They really DESERVE us!!

Okay, at first this might seem like a good idea. Everyone's saying, "Let's all send Christmas cards to the anti-Christian folks at the ACLU, that'll really show 'em!"
It'll show them all right. It'll show them what a bunch of morons people can be spending their hard earned money on none other but people they don't like. So the ACLU gets a bunch of mailbags full of Christmas cards. What are we going to really do to them? Inconvenience them for a few days? Whooptie-Doo.
Use a little logic and don't waste your money on a Christmas card to send to them, nor the cost of a stamp. With the price of the average Christmas card costing between $2 and $5, take the money spent on that one card, write out a check and send it to your favorite Christian-Rights organization that fights to keep your Christianity from being banned in this country. If everyone would do this instead, think of all the extra funding that would be used where it's REALLY needed.
I guarantee the money you give a Christian rights group is much more needed, and would be a bigger help in the long run, than that of wasting your money to cause a temporary inconvenience to ACLU by sending them a card.
