Joy Behar's Bill O'Reilly Christmas Card (PHOTO)
Joy Behar commemorated her walk-off from "The View" during Bill O'Reilly's appearance in her 2010 Christmas Card. The front of the card features a Photoshop of the two with the phrase "Peace on Earth." Inside, a special message from Joy appears (written out below): Joy's Christmas message; Good will toward Men and Women and Muslims and Jews and Catholics and Atheists (not agnostics - too wishy washy) and Mama Grizzlies and Democrats and Republicans and Tea Partiers and One of the Kardashian gi...

Mike Ragogna: "My Christmas Card To You," Plus Conversations With Thala and Flo Rida
A Conversation with Thalía Mike Ragogna : Hi, Thalía. Thanks so much for taking time out for this interview. Thalía : How are you Mike. MR : Thalía, much like Elvis, you're a huge international superstar. Recently, you participated in the Viva Elvis recordings associated with the Cirque du Soleil show in Las Vegas, recording a duet with The King on his classic "Love Me Tender." And I believe, even though it's years after he passed away, you're the first Latin artist to have been inclu

Stranger Than Fiction: Tony Perkins' Christmas Card
For a few quiet days, Christians everywhere can humbly reflect on the greatest miracle in the history of mankind . In no other religion does the Creator of the universe come down to earth and live among us, His own creatures. Huh? Perkins ignores a lot of religions here. Of course, he's never been one to quote scholars accurately. In ancient times there were over twenty dying-and-rising gods to which people prayed, several having virgin births! His revisionist historian, David Barton, ...

Last minute Christmas card? There's an app for that!
(GigaOM.com) -- Realizing there’s no chance of getting your traditional paper-based holiday card out this year, your only recourse is to explore electronic options. You may find just what you are looking for in one of the following three iOS (AAPL) app-based solutions. A word of caution: Some of the e-card solutions utilize a server-side service to send the cards. I’ve noticed some of these solutions ended up in recipients’ spam folders, so if you’re not sure whether the ...

ACLU Asks Obama Administration to Force Catholic Hospitals to Perform Abortions
The ACLU has asked Barack Hussein Obama's Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to force all Catholic Hospitals in the United States to perform Abortions, despite official Catholic teaching that life begins at the moment of conception, and that abortion is tantamount to the Premeditated Murder of an innocent human being. Citing Phoenix's Bishop Thomas Olmsted’s decision to revoke the Catholic status of a local (formerly) Catholic hospital in which an abortion took place, the ACLU...

Americans United for Life has posted its 2010 State Legislative Session Report , citing this year’s pro-life and anti-life accomplishments around the country.

Un-merry Christmas from the ACLU
The ACLU’s Unholy War on Catholic Hospitals by Michelle Malkin Creators Syndicate Copyright 2010 Ho, ho, ho! Just in time for Christmas, the American Civil Liberties Union has launched a new salvo against people of faith. Even as billions around the world celebrate the birth of Christ, joyless, Abortion-obsessed secularists never take a holiday. On Wednesday, the ACLU sent a letter to federal health officials urging the government to force Catholic hospitals in the U.S. to perform aborti...

And a time to f*ck that sh*t.
-Ecclesiastes. Google it. On Wednesday, the ACLU sent a letter to federal health officials urging the government to force Catholic Hospitals in the U.S. to perform Abortions in violation of their core moral commitment to protecting the lives of The Unborn. They’re counting on sympathetic Obama Rationing czar Donald Berwick — a recess appointee whose radical views on wealth and health redistribution were never vetted by Congress — to dictate which religious principles hosp...

'Citizen Soros' nowtargeting messenger
For someone who once described himself as "some kind of god" and said that makes him feel comfortable, the scrutiny of a new report that looks into his increasing influence over the messengers in today's world probably won't have a personal impact. But whether it affects him or not, octogenarian Billionaire George Soros' funding of a media "monitor" that routinely attacks traditional and conservative media is becoming a focal point. The report by Matthew Vadum, editor of Organization Trends, i...

The Political Lessons Of A Christmas Carol
© Unknown I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round, as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys. -- A Christmas Carol, Charles Dickens I know it's fashionable to hate the holiday...

Glenn Beck's Christmas Message: 'The Real Meaning Of Christmas' (VIDEO)
Glenn Beck says the "real meaning of Christmas" is a chance for a fresh start. The Fox News host, along with several of his colleagues, recorded a Christmas message for Fox News Insider (via TVNewser). "The real meaning of Christmas, just a chance to start over again," Beck said. "Which I think is the ultimate Christmas message." Geraldo Rivera said the Holiday Season signifies "when the people who have remember the people who don't have. It's the time of compassion, it's the time of giving," ...

"Take Heaven, Take Peace, Take Joy"
Christmas always recalls Eric Sevareid, one of the 20th century's best Journalists and a writer with gifts far beyond reporting the news. I published an essay of his twice in different decades in different magazines. Herewith, excerpts: "Christmas offers us peace in one hand but in the other it carries a sword. The peace it offers is the love we felt in childhood and may still feel again if we have lived our lives as we were instructed in our early days. The sword is our conscience, glittering ...

Meaning of Christmas found in relationships
I tend to side with those who worry about the decline in religious knowledge, particularly among believers. It seems like you ought to know why you believe and be able to explain it. But this focus on religious knowledge assumes that we learn about God only through the mind, doctrines and even Scriptures. I don’t know about you, but life’s curves have informed my religious views at least as much. What’s more, they often challenge my ability to string together a consistent theo...

Happy Holidays!
It came yesterday afternoon. Not the semi-crass plea for cash that Rep. Charlie Rangel included in his Christmas Card. Nor the foreshadowing of non-giving Christmases yet to come that Gov.-elect Andrew Cuomo put in his. This was just straight up good cheer from a man without even a puppy in the political arena: Rick Lazio. “WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROUS SUPPORT AND SEND OUR HEARTFELT WISHES FOR A Holiday Season OF LOVE, FRIENDSHIP AND COMPASSION, AND MUCH HAPPINESS IN THE NEW YEAR!̶...

Ghosts of Christmas Past
A Mudville Christmas special rerun, this from December, 2003, our Christmas Card to you. And in young Greyhawk's world nothing made Christmas a more tangible reality than the annual arrival of the Sears Christmas catalog. Once you could flip those pages you could really start to plan your Christmas in earnest. You knew just what toys you wanted, just by looking at those flat, two- dimensional images. In your minds eye, of course, you were already playing with them. I was never a greedy kid; I r...

Think about giving the gift of time, and yourself, this Christmas
Here’s something I would like you all to consider on this Christmas Eve, as you put the finishing touches on your plans for the holidays tonight and tomorrow. As you write out the Gift Cards that will go on all the fancy things you have lovingly wrapped, think about adding one extra line or two to give a very personal, special gift to someone you love. Write it however you like.  Pick whatever charitable cause you want. Heck, do an hour of phone banking for Governor Palin or canvassin...

Hark! The Delegate Sings!
Christmas carols are timeless. Christmas Cards aren't. Just ask Del. John A. Cosgrove, R-Chesapeake, who still gets comments on his holiday crooning years after cutting a Christmas CD. A few years back, Cosgrove decided he'd rather not send out Christmas cards. "Everyone sends out Christmas cards," he said. "Sometimes they are not even signed." Then they get thrown out. So Cosgrove decided on a more personal and lasting expression of Christmas Spirit to send to 20,000 of his closest friends and ...

The "30 Rock" gang shows us the true spirit of Christmas -- from which "as hard as you try, no one can escape"
"Christmas Attack Zone": In this year's Christmas episode of 30 Rock, Jack (Alec Baldwin) explains, "We Donaghys believe that when there is something at all delicate to talk about, it is best to suppress it-- until it erupts into a fistfight in a church barbecue," and his seven-months-pregnant lady friend Avery (Elizabeth Banks) chimes in, "The symbol on the Jessup family crest is a knight refusing to talk about his feelings." "You know what I learned tonight? As hard as you try, no one can es...

Kathy Griffin On Mocking The Palins: I Do It To Irritate The View & Bill OReilly
Comedian Kathy Griffin appeared on The Late Late Show to tell host Craig Ferguson that there’s a very good reason why she makes jokes about the Palin family — including calling Dancing with the Stars “star” Bristol Palin “the white Precious” for having evidently gained weight throughout the show’s season. Griffin is merely, she explained, trying to capture the attention of The View and Bill O’Reilly . Griffin said she particularly hopes get conser...

Deck the Halls With Partisan Warfare
Fri Dec. 24, 2010 3:00 AM PST Ah, Christmas in Washington. 'Tis the season for holiday cheer, good tidings—and political attacks wrapped up in cringeworthy yuletide metaphors. Cultural Conservatives have long accused liberals of waging a "war on Christmas," and both parties have been blamed for grinchy behavior this year. Below, ten ways the holiday has been used for political ends: 1) Though revived by the rise of Christian fundamentalists, the purported "war on Christmas&...

O'Reilly and Coulter try to explain why right-wing scroogery is really Christian charity
Bill O'Reilly really took it personally when Stephen Colbert made fun of O'Reilly's bizarre column claiming that Jesus really wouldn't have helped the poor at Christmas time -- or at least worried about their Unemployment checks. But Judeo-Christian tradition does not require blind largesse. We are not mandated to buy people gin or Cocaine, or pay someone's bills if they refuse to work. If you want to do that, you can in a free society. But to force the responsible to pay for the irresponsible i...
