Jesus - Christ - Lord - Christmas

As I watched the morning shows this morning, many references to Jesus, Christ, God, and Christmas were all intermingled. It struck me why on any other day of the year, the very folks who were uttering these words would react in horror if a political candidate were to utter or ever make a reference to one of these words. Or worse still, indicate they themselves were religious.
On both ABC and NBC, the A-Teams were on board, so this was the regulars acting all religious and wonderful. The utter hypocrisy they display on every other day of the year when a politico mentions anything related to religion just jumped out at me.
We are a nation founded on Christian principles, and yes, we are a diverse country, the most diverse on the planet. For whatever reason, the hypocrisy jumped out at me today.
Merry Christmas to anyone reading this, and Happy Birthday Jesus.
