Easter Under Attack

During the spring of 2006 Stephen Colbert noticed Easter, was under attack by none other than the secular left. The event that sparked the series took place in St. Paul, Minnesota, in which a secretery was told to remove her easter decorations from her desk. Later in the year the Antony Thomas Candy Company recalled candy easter eggs because they possibly contained egg whites. To this Stephen responded with, "Whats next Antony Thomas Candy Company, recalling communion waifers because they may contain Jesus?" In this same episode Colbert addressed the issue of Walgreens (the drug lords) new item Easter entitled "Prayer Bears." In no way should Easter be involved with godless killing machines.
