the war on Saturnalia

If you've had it up to here with the Faux News "War on Christmas," check out Garrett Eisler's great piece at HuffPo titled "The War on Saturnalia." It's a good read:

There's a war being waged against our sacred winter holiday, people. Centuries ago, our forebearers at this time of year began exchanging gifts, decorating trees, and welcoming the winter solstice with the return of light and end of darkness. All in the name of our beloved God. Yes, you know who I mean. Even in these heathen times, I'm not ashamed to speak his name: Saturn. There, I said it. Let's stop denying who this holiday is really about.
