The 1950s musical White Christmas is about a group of WWII veterans unhappy about 70 degree weather in Vermont on Christmas Eve. They were dreaming of a White Christmas, and planning to help out their WWII general.
Fast forward to 2011 in Vermont. Instead of army heroes singing, we have Bill McKibben frantically twitting that the warm weather requires that we give up everything the WWII soldiers fought for.
You would think lefties would love Christmas, all red and green!
They hate it because of all the joy.
