He's back. A&E came to their senses and realized they were about to lose their best show and lots of revenue. Which would have put all the "gays" which are employed there, out of work. Now, there's adhering to principle for ya, unlike Phil who wasn't changing anything he said or apologizing for his beliefs.
I luv it when the left gets their butt handed to them in a gunny sack. Needs to happen more often, a lot more often.

Two (or more) entrances, each with a picture of "Santa" over it so customers can make a free-market choice... White, Black, Yellow, Tan... Green... whatever. And Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all.

He'd have the beard, at least.

Black, white, Amer. indian, Scandinavian, who really cares? Though I don't know about a Ninja or Islamist Santa. I suppose if they want one though, why not. He started as a Pagan for the winter solstice anyway.

Ohhh... thats nasty......

A Duck Dynasty Character! Oh wait, that was last weeks episode wasn't it.....is Phil back yet???...anyone.....?

I thought that was weird too- like Santa of the mall offices

How about "Redneck Santa". He doesn't need s sleigh--he's got a large SUV that dashes through the snow, retc. Instead of red, he wears camouflage and instead of candy canes, he gives out pamphlets from the NRA and lectures on the Second Amendment. Probably keeps a bottle of moonshine stashed away somewhere nearby, too.

Bondo Santa? Little Leather and Lace? And what about animal abuse? Why doesn't anyone ever complain about some reindeer enslaved by some old fat white dude with midgets in tow? Can't he just have a "magic" sleigh, and air drop stuff like the Air Force? This whole thing needs some cleaning up!

JFK Democrat weighing in.

For a store - let it be - their choice - natural selection due to competition factors will decide.
For any private production, let it be.
For any of your own productions, YOU choose, not our choice.
For public funds used for it, that is an inappropriate use of public funds. If private citizens want to chip in and share their Santa, let them, even if there are a dozen multicolored Santas and if wise, get all the Santa's together for a photoshoot and in the spirit of the season give them all a hug and a thanks.

Ideologically, it seems silly to have a Santa that doesn't reflect the roots of Saint Nicholas.

Spiritually, every child needs to remake such figures in their own image.

Let us hope that in the future, we see this kind of situation:

"What are drawing, honey?" Her mother asked.
Seven-year-old Helen answered: "I am drawing Santa."
Her mother hesitated, then decided to ask her to describe Santa.
Helen's description followed with, "He's wearing a red traditional suit today, but with those new Google glasses to better track his deliveries, and a warmer hat due to the cold, the kind that goes over his ears. His mouth twists up in a grin that hides great joy, and his eye twinkles."

Helen's mother paused, the question barely remembered from her youth, and asked, "But, should his face be...green?"

Helen paused in her drawing, and looking up with eyes free of centuries of foolish ideas, she says, "Why? Does it matter?"

Wow, an ST fan, and a humorist. Good for you Mac!

"The Great Santa War" is the result of the downtrodden 'Laimstream' Media networks, both on the air and on the net, trying any offense they can mount on the Murdock Media Companies, Fox, FNC, FBN & etc.

The whole "Santa" mythos is a European creation, so the odd notion that the character should have a multiracial occurrence is strictly a production of modern political correctness, just like a black Christ.

Actually, I thought it was kinda creepy they had to go find the "ghetto" North Pole to find the black santa. One would think they could have safely given him the cube behind the white dude, and a couple of black elves just to sorta flesh things out...

I'd like to see the video of ADHD Santa.

And I'm sure an adult bookstore could draw customers with Leather Santa.

Imagine the possibilities! This could be a gold mine!

Don't look for PETA Santa.. they sued him for cruelly shackling those reindeer to a sled and making them fly so fast all around the world without union representation.

I want a left-handed, Scandinavian Lutheran Santa who only wears natural fibers and does not use animal products. Disclaimers must be offered as to the probability of wishes actually being granted and any candy given must be free trade, cruelty-free, gluten-free, no GMO, and produced by Bhutanese women operating under a microfinancing grant to benefit their community.

If Macy's refuses to provide me with an "appropriate" Santa, I will sue them for emotional pain and suffering, not to mention discrimination and anything else I can think of.

Next year: Black Santa, Homosexual Santa, Chinese Santa, Wetback Santa, and the list goes on. Ya Ya YA, I am a racist.

This remark is speciesist. The Union of Concerned Natures Creatures demands equal representation in Santa roles for ants and alligators.
and whoops, if I could spell I would have down and not upmarked Dargo's post.

Black Santa looks perfect with his rosy cheeks. Macy 's can do what it likes but I don't think it matters what race Santa is as long as he stays in character.

Exactly! There was absolutely no need for any part in the Great Santa war, to say one word. Leave well enough alone and let each individual observe Christmas and Santa, and elves, and reindeer and all that, in their own way.

"special Santa"? Anything else is...UNspecial?? We've lost our minds with this hoop jumping... special hoop jumping, that is.
