Funny how there’s some much debate over a fictional character.
Megyn Kelly of Fox News sarcastically mentioned to her audience last week that Santa Claus is white - in answer to a blogger’s note that the cherubic white Santa Claus we’ve all grown up with should morph into something more sepia-toned as our society becomes more diverse
Like it matters...
Last year we went to Menlo Park Mall, and Santa was in rare form. My son Jack handed him a wish list and Santa read it out loud ... Lego Ninjago, Rock Em Sock Em Robots, then as a prank he added, "And a Barbie!" My son looked puzzled and craned his neck to see if he had actually somehow written that and Santa bust out laughing in a very convincing, "Ho! Ho! Ho!"
What's worse than a news anchor blabbing on live TV that Santa isn't real? How about a Texas kindergarten teacher revealing the terrible truth about Saint Nick to her entire class of five-year-olds? Yep, that actually happened.
