Bet you didn't know that Kearney's "Santa" doesn't believe in Christmas.
Mayor Paul Tomlinson (who was goaded into playing Santa this year by outgoing Mayor Johnston) tried his best to impose his non-Judeo/Christian beliefs on Kearney's council by having the Lord's Prayer struck from the opening proceedings. Fortunately, the majority of council is more tolerant than Tomlinson and voted to continue to recite the prayer.
Isn't religious intolerance usually found in a dictatorship?
If you see His Worship, tell him that the Concerned Citizen's of Kearney wish him a "Merry Christmas!", but he's probably back in Proudfoot decorating his Holiday Tree.
