Santa Claus is fine at a North Carolina Christmas parade. But Mrs. Claus has to stay away.
Organizers of the Raleigh parade told The News & Observer of Raleigh that they are just following policy and children would be confused if there were two people in the Saturday parade in Santa suits.
John Odom says organizers even discourage parade watchers from wearing Santa hats so everyone's attention is on the real St. Nick.
Mrs. Claus isn't happy. Debra Goldman says she was allowed to don her gray wig and long red dress last year as she walked with the sheriff.
Odom says organizers didn't know Goldman was dressing as Mrs. Claus last year. This year, she sent out a press release.
Goldman says she still might wear a Santa hat as she walks.

your children probably know more about santa than they do Jesus... But im sure your fine with that... and putting trees in you house is idol worship as well, if you dont believe then read jeremiah 10 v1-10.... Aww your feelings are really hurt now...!
Well, it just goes to show you that the liberals who run everything in our state capitol are trying to take Christmas out of my God-given right to have a parade. Obama has ruined everything for white christians. What has the world come to when you can't have santa claus in the Christmas parade. Leaving his wife out is just as bad. Like Sarah showed the liberal elites, a woman can do just as good at politics as a man. God Bless you All!
Well I think she should stay home, those elves get into all sorts of trouble when she is away... I have to stay back at Easter and feed the baby bunnies and clean up all that egg mess left from decorating. It only seems fair!
