A Christmas verse from 23/6

Yes, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together. And children everywhere will soon be staying up late listening for the sound of jingle bells, Batman smells. But perhaps the best known and most beloved of holiday poems is Clement Clark Moore's eternal "A Visit From St. Nicholas." It's charming imagery and gentle rhythm make it a favorite of young and old.

At least, that used to be the case, until this whole "War on Christmas" business started. Now, this joyous occasion is being dismantled from the inside out with insidious strategies like business owners asking employees to say "happy holidays," rather than "merry Christmas." With liberals doing their best to ruin the season for Christian-Americans everywhere, we thought it was maybe time for a little update to the holiday classic. That's why 23/6 is proud to present our retelling:

A VISIT FROM SECULAR PROGRESSIVES

Please, could you make this charming verse available in more printable form. I tried printing it, but the reverse type makes it impossible to read (after using all that ink!). I'd prefer to avoid simply typing the whole thing into my own text edit or whatever. Thanks.

Is Santa changing his name to Bob Humbug & moving from the North Pole to Hi because the ice caps melted, huh, huh or did he go to Tahiti? Tell him to get poly-cotton, not rayon, for his loud short sleve shirts & Ms Santa's Mu Mu cover up for her string bikini. Rayon gets real hot since it doesn't breathe like poly-cotton.
