To
My Democrat 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 2010, 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

* * * * In the year of our Lord Jesus Christ 2010.

And to all, "Peace on Earth, Good Will Toward Men."

Dave
