11 /24/09 READER SUBMITTED COMMENTS: MERRY CHRISTMAS ACLU

What a good idea! I hope you will do this with me. Send the ACLU a CHRISTMAS CARD this year. As they are working hard to get rid of CHRISTMAS, we could send them a card showing support for a Christ filled holiday. Make sure it says "Merry Christmas" on it. And be sure to let them know exactly how you feel and believe about their position. Here's the address 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. It only takes 44 cents to tell the ACLU we believe in Christmas. Also tell them that there is no such thing as a " Holiday Tree". It's always been called a CHRISTMAS TREE! And pass this on to your email lists, using Bcc. We want to communicate our faith to the ACLU! We value the phrase, "One nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." That means something. The ACLU, (the American Civil Liberties Union) is the one suing the U.S. Government to take God, Christmas or anything religious away from us. Nativity scenes are even banned in government places now. Prayers are not allowed in schools. We need to send our voice, so they know how many people value their freedom. Hope you take time to send a card.
