Will be about any of the following items or any combination thereof:
Homeless are hungry
Why are there so many homeless?
Children hungry this holiday season
Economy is bad
Gas prices hitting consumers negatively
The evils of capitalism this Christmas
Why aren't the haves helping the have nots
We shouldn't celebrate too much since there are so many without
Christmas is bad
Thanksgiving is bad
Why celebrate when we stole from the indians
How Kwanza is just as relevant as Christmas or Hanukkah
Americans are greedy or self-centered or fixated on materialism, etc.
How can people waste so much energy on Christmas lights
Cutting down Christmas trees is destroying Gaia, environment
Americans wasting whatever traveling over the holidays
Travel nightmares, delays in air travel, etc.
Why don't we bring the soldiers home for the holidays
How can we justify Christmas as peaceful when we're killing so many innocent Iraqis, etc.
Anything on the "homeless crises" in America
Heating oil is in short supply
Old people are freezing to death
Children or homeless are freezing to death
Anything on "Black Friday" ad nauseam
or
Any combination of the above items rolled into one story
Now this list is not all inclusive by any means. Feel free to add your own ideas.
Be sure to watch the MSM for how many of the above items you can catch - make it a game! When ya'll are sitting around on Thanksgiving waiting to eat, after you eat or before the ballgame, turn on your local news and see how many of these items you can spot - it's fun!
What makes it ridiculous instead of fun is that you can set your clocks to the regularity of these story items. We get them every year, every holiday season.
PS - As I finish this, I just heard a little radio snippet about how crowded stores are on "Black Friday".
Too easy...
