I don't think you are anti-semitic, just delusional. I just drove by the park. There are not one but 3 wonderfully lit Christmas trees. The menorah's two lights are burning bright. No rational individual could claim that menorah is overpowering. I don't know what your obsession with size is overcompensating for, but trust me the Christmas trees are not being overpowered. |

It's NOT mentioned in ANY Hebrew texts.
"Hey, we only have enough oil for one night".
"No.......wait a minute we found some more back here behind the olives".
"We should be okay for a few more days". |
joe, I didn't realize you were scholar of Hebrew texts. I guess you really do learn something new every day. |

And Christmas isn't the actual birth of Christ either. |

The holiday candle display could have been alittle small and not as bright. What was the need to overpower our holiday tree? Was it a sign of anti-christian ? An attack on christians? |
It doesn't overpower the christmas tree. Lighten up Francis. |

The post was intended to poke fun at the ridiculousness of the debate, in particular the arguments against the Menorah, such as "it doesn't belong next to the Christmas tree" and "blue Christmas tree lights represent Jewish people".

Let me get this straight, an offensive post was removed. You would like it reposted. My you are a class act. |
Nope. It's still here in a different thread:

This is a privately owned site. While I did not intend to offend anyone, I respect the fact that the owner has the right to remove a post that they personally find offensive. So, I do not plan to enter a posting-contest with the site's owner. That said, I think the owner should re-read my post and have the integrity to clarify that the post was NOT antisemitic. |

Humor is a matter of opinion, but anti-semitism is a pretty strong charge to levy. Care to explain that one? |

An anonymous post slamming the practice of anonymous posting-
now that is pure comic genius!
