This is fun. This reporter from Fox asks very pointed questions of that squishy Governor of Rhode Island Lincoln Chafee who recently renamed the Christmas tree a Holiday tree.
This reporter does a great job and leads him down the road to the logical conclusion of his actions which Chafee has absolutely no answer for. And then watch as he scurries away. Great reporting.

Actually, I think Bill O'Reilly makes the biggest fumble here with his comment that the Christmas tree doesn't represent a religion. Isn't he "hollowing" out Christmas with that one? He might have meant that it doesn't represent any one group of Christians but really a Christmas tree does reressnt a specific religious holiday. Not very articulate and kind of stupid.

I caught this on TV and was actually SHOCKED at how vile this character was.
No Hollywood actor could PRETEND to be a slippery politician any better than this real-life guy. I was literally slack-jawed watching it. It's scary. It didn't even look real!
Did you see how he kept lying through his teeth, then throwing up that fake smile as if he was really happy, etc.? What a lying sack o' potatoes this guy is.
Creepy.

The purity of theology…blah blah blah. What a slimeball!

If it's a "holiday tree" why don't they put one up on July 4th?

Chaffee and his administration and all the state workers should be at work over Christmas (or the holidays they get off) since he is worried about "mixing" religion and state. "Secular" is a myth. It is ALL "religion". "Seculars" simply worship the state primarily and demand that "religious" people put the state first as well, keeping their "religious" views from impacting "secular" state transgressions and intervetions.

What they really need anyway is a creche, a large one, with angels, shepherds, Magi, animals and everything. Oh, and don't forget the star. Great video! Merry Christmas everyone.

I think the name PROVIDENCE should be stricken from the name of the capital of Rhode Island.

One thing that's not an ongoing debate: Lincoln Chafee is a grinning, bobblehead doofus!
