The Church fights back
A fine audio collage on Christmas and America produced by Scooter. A blend of social satire, inspired nonsense, improbable music, serious debate, standup comedy, right-wing craziness, & great fun.
This collage weaves together a debate on religion by the late Christopher Hitchens and Bill Donahue, a parody musical-comedy Christmas movie, a parody war movie (climaxing in the death of all three Chipmunks), ravings by Bill O'Reilly and a few televangelists, heavy-metal Christmas carols, standup comedy by Lewis Black and Sam Kinison, and more.
Last December we played a 12-minute excerpt from the piece. This year (what the heck) we present Scooter's tour-de-force almost uncut ... almost uncensored ... and almost unabridged!
Scooter, in a reflective moment

Counterpunch posted a nice political history of the War on Christmas that paints in an even more disturbing light than this audio collage: http://www.counterpunch.org/2015/12/23/the-war-on-christmas-or-how-to-build-mass-support-for-right-wing-ideology/
Donny,
Many thanks for the suggestion. It sounds interesting indeed! I'll take a look.
Best, Ken
