In his email he said:

"Trying to adhere to tenets of political correctness was not the basis for the earlier decision"?

LOL-riiiiiiight

“As stated in my earlier message, there was no attempt to suppress expression of the holiday spirit. However, the message was received differently, and for this, I am sorry.”

TRANSLATION: You chose to believe your lying ears. It wasn't my fault.

The USPS Board of Governors, then under the leadership of one of the member's wives (who was from San Francisco and boy was she a bych), banned religious Christmas decorations from "public areas" which meant, of course, that you could have a creche or whatever in any "non public areas" which meant almost anywhere since the ONLY public areas in any USPS facility are the "main lobby".

Initially some of the bosses tried to crack down on the practice of secretaries at Headquarters having a creche or two at the desk, but they eventually gave up once everyone realized what the BOG ruling actually said.

I think this really POed the anti-Christian types but in an organization as diverse as USPS you get just everyody ~ and targeting Christians for harrassment really wasn't in the cards.

This university president seems to have failed to figure out what might happen.

I guess we gave this jerk an earfull.

Only someone with PhD following their name could come up with a tortured explanation like that, claiming no fault whatsoever.

“Holiday Decorations Allowed Back at Florida University “

which holiday?

[mewzilla]

Bet some alumni let him have it.

[Balding_Eagle]

"there was no attempt to suppress expression of the holiday spirit.” ................................ no holiday decorations of any sort would be allowed in the common public spaces.

I think that's called an oxmoronic statement.

How does it ‘disrespect’ other traditions by observing our own. Do I care if Muslims don’t eat pork in front of me, or celbrate whatever it is by butchering a goat? Hell, no. You don’t like bacon, it’s ok with me, and so is celbrating whatever holy days that you observe.

but I demand the right to eat pork if I feel like it, and to celbrate Christmans, Easter, and the 4th of July, and if that’s disagreeable to you, tough.

As an FGCU student, I can say the place is every bit as loony as the Ivy League schools. But the girls are gorgeous, so it balances out.

“As stated in my earlier message, there was no attempt to suppress expression of the holiday spirit.

Yeah right. Who is he kidding????

[navyguy]

“how best to observe the season in ways that honor all traditions”

For a guy with a Ph.D. he’s a moron. “All traditions” don’t celebrate Christmas (only Christaians do) so why should Christmas be changed to celebrate them?

Diversity is about Sameness.

[Halfmanhalfamazing]

This is the kind of thing

This is the reason

I will be thankful tomorrow for the end of the liberal media's monopoly.

Because the word got out, we brought the heat. Because the word got out, we shut them down and forced them to do the right thing. By 'we' I mean conservatives and americans who still cherish our heritage, national identity, and culture.

And I feel safe saying 'we', because I don't expect to run into many liberals who would be outraged over this story.

[Elsiejay]

Christmas is NOT about “honoring all traditions,” including Islam, Wiccan, et cetera. It is about Christmas.

[joma89]

Have no doubt, the college president will try it again next year and hope that she can slip it in without anyone noticing.

And the war on Christmas and Christianity will go merrily along!

Yeah, they were not at all about being PC. Riiiight... Nice to see the decorations are back, anyway.
