Subject: RE: BS: Kwanza is an invented non-holiday
SRS, I do like those holidays such as the ones that you mentioned with the exception of Earth Day which is also an invented holiday that is self serving to a special interest group. The other holidays are certified national holidays and observances for all peoples of America, and does not require you to buy a Hallmark card. You are truly comparing apples to oranges and I don't at all buy into it.

Kwanzaa is something Hallmark jumped on the bandwagon with. It is of a newly created, self-serving, me-too type of non-observance created for the self-estemm of a special interest group. Who needs a special day to do what is mandated by this so called holiday?

Sorry, but recognizing this day for anything other than some politically correct reason is just another sneseless far left liberal cause.
