War on Christmas? Republican Governor cancels Christmas for cash!

Lincoln era film pulls plug on Richmond’s capitol tree lighting
By Laura Vozzella

Yes, Virginia, there is a Grinch. But this year it’s not a green-skinned grouch who’s stealing Christmas in the commonwealth. It’s Steven Spielberg.

The director is filming “Lincoln” at the governor’s mansion and Capitol Square, and that means the annual capitol tree lighting has been called off.

Gov. Robert F. McDonnell’s office announced the cancellation Thursday."
