I was over at the [URL=http://www.colorworks.com/cgi-bin/sgdynamo.exe?HTNAME=_winter.htm&UID=&CODIV=0224&GEN5=]M&M[/URL] website and discovered that they had Chankkah and Kwaanza holiday packages of M&Ms, as well as others like "Frosty" and "Elf Mix." No Christmas M&Ms. The festive webpages make generous use of the word "Holiday" but the word Christmas is no were to be found. Almost. If you check the history section, you'll find that in the 1980s they had Christmas M&Ms and even Easter M&Ms.

In Amerikwa, Christmas means Frosty and Santa; the recognition of the day of Christ's birth is in violation of separation of church and state. Hanukkah, which recognizes Chosenite religious symbols such as the menorah and the Star of David, are acceptable because there is no separation of synagogue and state. Kwanzaa is a made-up holiday by a black activist type that closely resembles Hanukkah and is considered religious by Amerikwan standards. As late as the 1980s, Amerikwa was known as America. Political and semitical correctness changed all of that.
