The War on Christmas: A Different Drummer Edition

On Black Friday, the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) offered this t-shirt at their online store...

After much mocking from liberal observers who found and presented dozens of examples of conservative Republican congresspersons and pundits, including Sen. John McCain and culture warrior Gen. Bill O'Reilly, himself, using the hated, Godless phrase, the t-shirt in question disappeared from the store.

The official explanation from the NRCC is that the shirt "sold out."

Because, you know, screen printed t-shirts are a scarce commodity.

But, fear not! A new shirt is now available in it's place...

Stand tall, all you persecuted Christian Republicans!

Have courage!

Give a big old "Go fuck yourself!" to all those nasty, secular humanist, liberals who want to take your Christ (and your guns) away from you!

Say it loud and say it proud!

Declare your victimhood!

Embrace your martyrdom!

Let your freak flag fly!

You can do it by sending $35 to the NRCC.

And all you will get is this lousy awesome t-shirt.

*Holy shit, people. Is there really enough WoC bullshittery out there to post something new every night for the next 21 nights? It's starting to feel like there might be.

It's like some sort of Bizarro World Advent calendar.*

So, before my head explodes, I'm going to take a deep breath and stop right here.

In the meantime...
