This year, religious conservatives, including the Rev. Jerry Falwell, have objected to the use of the term "holiday tree," saying it seeks to minimize the Christian origins of Christmas. Look how the AP blames the Religious right...grrrrrrrrr.

Good for them!
Here's the funny part:
"It is, in fact, a Christmas tree," said the second release. "The staffer responsible can be contacted at P.O. Box 432, Anchorage, Alaska, 99501." LOL

When people say to me "happy holidays" I reply, "It is OK to wish me a Merry Christmas, I won't sue." It is so very disarming and always worth a good laugh.
One co-worker said "but I am Jewish". I said, "yeah, but I am not, so happy Hannukah." Still laughter.
Try it yourself.

Political correctness has indeed become almost totally pervasive. I was listening to one of the most conservative Christian ministers on a radio talk show and he used the term "Chair" to identify the head of a College dept.
Gone are the days when we used the term chairman, and "madam chairman". They have been replaced by a piece of furniture.

The PC crowd tries to pretend Christmas is not Christmas and turn it into a shopping spree. How similar all this is to Soviet Russia.

Exactly 30 minutes later, a second release blamed the wording on "a politically correct staff brain-freeze." "It is, in fact, a Christmas tree," said the second release. "The staffer responsible can be contacted at P.O. Box 432, Anchorage, Alaska, 99501." LOL!!! Oh my...they sold out the staffer. Well, can't say the staffer didn't deserve it.

As a citizen of Georgia and a Republican I have not been all that impressed by Governor Perdue. But this year he has really made some great calls and this incident makes me a new fan.

A press release sent by Perdue's office to members of the media Friday afternoon announced plans for a "holiday tree" lighting ceremony at the governor's mansion. Exactly 30 minutes later, a second release blamed the wording on "a politically correct staff brain-freeze." "It is, in fact, a Christmas tree," said the second release. "The staffer responsible can be contacted at P.O. Box 432, Anchorage, Alaska, 99501." The staffer responsible for the first press release has been sacked. Furthermore, the staffer responsible for giving that address has also been sacked. ;~D
LOL - someone at the Georgia Governor's office is Funny!

The staffer responsible can be contacted at P.O. Box 432, Anchorage, Alaska, 99501 Since I live in Alaska this really caught my attention. The 99501 zip code is downtown Anchorage - urban for us, a collection of six highrises, four hotels and a bunch of bars for everyone else. Nevertheless, I just spent 30 minutes trying to google this address and I can't find it. My little s*** detector went into overdrive with this little detail. It might be a real place. Why Alaska? Considering the prevailing attitude up here, the original press release must have been written by one of the remaining 14 liberals left over from pipeline days. Strange.
