Bully Pulpit

The term "bully pulpit" stems from President Theodore Roosevelt's reference to the White House as a "bully pulpit," meaning a terrific platform from which to persuasively advocate an agenda. Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

A year later, Gap continues to censor Christmas

At Gap, the score is "holiday" 172 and "Christmas" 3

At Gap, Old Navy and Banana Republic, Christmas hardly exists. For these three companies, all owned by Gap, the only items listed as having anything to do with Christmas were a pair of boxer shorts and a child's sleepwear set.

Last year, when Gap also censored Christmas, we contacted the company. The company refused to change their policy of censoring Christmas. This year the company has continued their practice of censoring Christmas from their stores and promotions. The only conclusion one can reach is that Gap will continue to censor Christmas, a Christian holy day.

Our friends at the AFA continue to provide fodder for the perpetually offended.

Here's the real meat of the matter:

Thank you for caring enough to get involved. If you feel our efforts are worthy of support, would you consider making a small tax-deductible contribution? Click here to make a donation.

I'm not quite sure why Wildmon thinks that a company run by hard-left-leaning San Franciscans that markets strongly to homosexuals would be friendly to Christmas anyway. Then again, Christmas has little to do with Christianity any more. The association was ever tenuous, at best. We might as well celebrate Yule or Weinacht.

If Christians choose to get their panties in a wad over a hijacked pagan holiday, I might suggest that they examine their priorities.

Groups like this like to stir the pot to get those donations coming in. Personally, I don't care what Gap does; I don't shop there anyway.
