I just got back from the post office and Hubby (the elected official in the family) received yet another Christmas card from a state government official. This time it was from Lt. Governor David Dewhurst.
So far I think we've gotten Christmas greetings from the Governor, two Senators, one State Representative, the State Comptroller, the Attorney General, and various and sundry Sheriffs throughout the state.
You wanna know the BEST part??
EVERY SINGLE one of these greetings had a Bible verse and/or a reference to the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
I've been checking the addresses and postage. It looks like they all have personal return addresses and regular old .39 cent holiday stamps. Hmmm . . . I suppose the "separation of church and state" is not going to diminish the personal beliefs of our elected officials.
And I REJOICE in that!!!!

AMEN! That is very cool. WE don't get any Christmas cards from elected officials, but I am really glad that there are still parts of this country that a) believe in the birth of Christ and want to celebrate it and b)want to share that information with others. Thanks for sharing.
BTW this is my first visit and I really like your blog! Found you through Rosemary and then Lorraine.
Have a great day!
