Not much of a war this year, and if there is one it looks like Christmas is winning. The American Family Association\'s "Naughty or Nice" list features far more companies that are Christmas-friendly than not. Sarah Palin has a new book out:\\xa0Good Tidings and Great Joy: Protecting the Heart of Christmas. It\'s more word salad from the former governor of Alaska, in which she laments the supposed assault on the Baby Jesus\' Birthday. Check out Katy Steinmetz\'s\\xa0humorous review\\xa0at TIME.
