Christmas Is Never Free

It would seem that the rumors are true the Grinch did steal Christmas this year. In the article “Mr. Grinch” the author makes some good points, with the decline in consumer demand where will that leave our economy. There is just not enough shoppers buying gifts for girls and boys and it is destroying our commercial economy, and from the looks of things I don’t think much is going to change. I mean sure, gas prices are lower, which means we can drive a lot more. But where are we driving to on Christmas with no gifts? Everyone is too frightened to buy gifts and splurge on family and friends because when the big hit comes they do not want to be un-prepared. So, they will scratch a few items from the grocery list and thin out their child’s Christmas list in order to have a little more extra cash to put in there cookie jar in case of a rainy day. The Grinch (Bush) thought it a good idea to spend everyone Christmas on war because that’s where it’s all really going. All the money that stabilizes our economy Bush thought a good idea to fund a futile attempt at “freeing” a nation who controls huge amount of the worlds’ oil. So, Bush hands out refund checks and pretends in will be okay and then when the big hit comes like what is currently here at least he will know he “tried”. In my straight opinion I think we pay for the mistake of an arrogant egotistical megalomaniac, and now we have to be strong for what’s to come because if we are going to make it we are going to make it knowing that gas is what got us into this in the first place. So, to end:

You're a monster, Mr. Grinch,
Your heart's an empty hole,
Your brain is full of spiders, you have garlic in your soul, Mr. Grinch,
I wouldn't touch you with a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot gasoline hose!
