The ‘Defend Christmas Freedom Hotline’ is now open. Operators are standing by.

There’s a new line of defense in the war on Christmas.

South Carolinians who find their religious freedom threatened this holiday season now have somewhere to turn: The “Defend Christmas Freedom Hotline” is up and running.

“If things go as we would like, we would like not to receive any calls,” says Dr. Oran Smith, president of the conservative Palmetto Family Council, which launched the hotline just after Thanksgiving.

The group plans to evaluate each call to determine whether there is a legitimate case to be made that religious freedom is being infringed. If there is, the council will refer the case to lawyers, either locally or with the Alliance Defending Freedom or Becket Fund.

You may want to put a post over in the Lounge. This sounds like something right down their alley. Some pretty creative folks over there.

No ideas right now, but will give it some thought while withdrawing from DU tonight and tomorrow.
