Liberty Quote
Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory there is no survival.
— Winston Churchill-

A ling distance 6th. Merry christmas from Krabi in Thailand
Loved the song – great choice for Christmas Eve. The incarnation is a wondrous thing.
Have yourselves a Merry Little Christmas, everyone. May you be blessed with all the best possible blessings.
Merry Christmas to all.
Just beautiful, Sinclair. I will use it to mend fences with lefty (but Christian — still hasn’t joined the dots about the left’s hatred of Christianity) stepdaughter, who I haven’t spoken to since Trump was elected. Thank you.
Merry Christmas , Bon Noel et Bon Natale to All Cats ,whether you are a practicing Chrisrian or a Callathumpian,enjoy your Liberty while you still have it . And a Happy and productive New Year In spite of ruddbull and shortass ,and that green of the Christmas .( di Natale }
Hello and Merry Christmas to everyone.
Merry Christmas to all. So lucky here, Santa delivered gifts under the magical tree right before squally weather hit, hope he’s not blown off course later in the night. Hope everyone has a beautiful day tomorrow, take care and may love be abounding. We are blessed.
I wonder what interesting news the MSM are intending to sneak out tonight?
Pentatonix Carol of the Bells is great.
Mary, did you know? Yes, she did.
Merry Christmas all.
Christmas is the season, but Easter is the reason.
This song is lovely.
I have heard it in a couple of shops this year and it’s been a delightful change from Mariah Carey.
This is also delightful, but in a different way … Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas everyone.
And Happy Hanukkah too
For all cats and kittehs.
Enjoy
It is now officially Christmas Day in Australia AEDT.
Merry Christmas to ALL Cats, regardless of whether we agree or disagree.
We all agree on one thing at least – life is beautiful.
Merry Christmas to all Cats, Sinc and Jacques, I hope the day brings joy your way.
It seems to me that people are going out of their way to wish each other “Merry Christmas” this year, feels good. Might just be an extension of “winning”. 😀
Beautiful! But I like the original by Mark Lowry who wrote the song…. so full of passion!
Here is my Christmas present to all Cats, a searchable collection of this site’s Liberty Quotes.

Merry Christmas everyone from Camas, Washington State, where it’s still Christmas Eve morning. Best wishes to you all and your families. Thanks Perfessor Doctor Doomlord, Sir, for the website.
Merry Christmas Cats. 😀
Enough of these maudlin dirges. Here’s one from a literary great!
And for those who still think of Bob as a lefty, try this one on.
Should be
Joyeux Noel to all – from Strasbourg the Capital of Christmas.
Strasbourg!
Lucky bystander.
Beautiful.
Tot Giang Sinh, cac con meo!
Here’s some more Christian music:
Thanks Notafan. It is a beautiful city but, alas, I have been here for a month doing ‘home duties’ as my wife does an Alliance Francaise course. I am really ready for Australia.
I hope you visited Colmar during your month.
I stayed in a Strasbourg apartment up close to the cathedral. The bells were colossal.
Bean Counter +1
Anyone have a more robust choral version?
Oh come oh come Emmanuel
This carol, and particularly this version of it, is, in my opinion unsurpassable.
Notafan we went to Colmar two weekends ago. Lovely but there were about 200,000 people there as well.to see how lovely it is.
Sorry – let’s try again – google this Beautiful Celtic Version of O Holy Night as for some reason the link isn’t working.
A very Merry Christmas to all the Cats.
Thank you all for your wit and your wisdom. The blog has so often been a retreat from the insanity of public life.
In reflecting the common sense of the wider community, it has encouraged optimism for the future, when that future has seemed very grim indeed.
I wish you and your families joy and fulfilment in your lives. God bless you all.
Merry Christmas from the Canadian Rockies. Yes, it does seem here too that people are going out of their way to say that instead of or as well as Happy Holidays. Hairy points out that Happy Holidays is an American tradition too, not just PC, because it encompasses Thanksgiving as well as Christmas.
We have just returned from our Christmas Eve sleighride in the snow, with the big horses pulling the sleigh having jingling bells on their harnesses. Very lovely to see the fir with snow trimmings sent from heaven, but also the few deciduous trees we saw on the journey made a splash with their snow-traced outlines against the twilighting sky. Many excited children on the ride. Minus ten degrees soon quietened them down a bit though. 🙂
So well put, Vicki. Raise a toast to the Cat today everyone and thanks to Sinclair and Jacques.

Beautiful Celtic Version of O Holy Night
Thank you A Lurker.
Beautifully sung by Emer Barry.
Lurker, this is the one you want to hear!
Not sure there is a better male voice…
Merry Christmas one and all.
Hope this gets through

OK. The day of good will to all is over, so let’s get back to sticking it to the left…..
Anyone who enjoyed the rollicking good fun at 6.24am above might appreciate some of the opposite right now.
Still from our greatest Nobel Prize Winner, and still the same Sydney Boy behind it, but I kinda guess Rosie Batty and mates a href=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TbmP2vXeQs”> won’t like it at all. Cheers.
Another try
Brilliant! Thank you Sinc. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you & yours.
