Tis the season to reignite the fallacious War on Christmas (fa la la la la, la la la la). Heedless of the wind and weather, Fox News conservatives are again calling for the end to universal holiday phrases. No more of this “Happy Holidays” garbage, they say. If it’s December, it’s “Merry Christmas” or bust, they cry.

Though irate talking heads are bringing the issue to the people, Jon Stewart is taking them all down. This week on Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, Stewart perfectly destroys the arguments of Fox’s Prom King and Queen, Sarah Palin and Bill O’Reilly.

And, if you watch all the way through, you’ll get the added bonus of seeing a clip of Palin divulging that in order to teach her family about Hanukkah, she leaves a menorah out on the kitchen table throughout the month of December. A great lesson in Judaism, Palin.

Sarah Palin released a video statement Wednesday calling the rush to blame on conservatives for the Tucson shooting a “blood libel.”  I thought using that phrase was incredibly stupid since, ya know, traditionally blood libels mean someone has been accusing the Jews of stealing gentile babies and draining them of their blood to make bread.

I’m not sure exactly who is writing Sarah’s speeches for her — or her infamous tweets and Facebook messages — but I’m sure they’re making a pretty penny doing the job. Still, I’m a nice guy, and I know everyone needs help now and again, so I cooked up a few sample ideas that Sarah is welcome to use in the future:

• This is a pogrom of justice.

• The lamestream media is committing a shoah against me.

• Those gosh dang Elders of Zion need to stop publishing lies about me.

• The liberal elite is poisoning the well.

• Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!  [Note: I stole this from Monty Python, but I don’t think she’d care.]

• I just don’t find Mel Brooks that funny.

• I’m the [insert Native American, African-American, people in Darfur, Christians during Roman times here] of the political world!

So Sarah, I’m available to write for you.  Just look me up on the Jewcy masthead and we can talk about compensation.
