Different Strokes For Different Folks

Since our society has become more politically correct and tolerant of the feelings and beliefs of others, we must all remember to be more sensitive so as to not offend our fellow man.




In this spirit, I submit the following:



To my Liberal friends, and those of a more sensitive nature:

Please accept with no obligation, implied or explicit, 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 2012 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 the United States is necessarily greater than any other country nor the only America in the Western Hemisphere.

Please also note: this wish is made without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference ...
of the wisher, or the wishees.

To my Conservative friends, and everyone else:

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

And yes ...
I agree, the USA is still the greatest
country in the history of the world.
