5. A gay sleigh is ok, but I have to draw the line at gay sleds.

11. Intolerance will NOT be tolerated!
Sleds should have the same rights as sleighs!

Of course, I'm totally opposed to sleds being able to marry sleighs. Cause that's just wrong!

7. Rosebud wasn't just a sled...

12. Yeah, I'd heard that too...
...and that this was the REAL reason Hearst was so pissed at Welles for "Kane." If so, well, you gotta give Orson credit for, uh, balls. I daresay he paid the price for it.
