[Verginius Rufus]

When Congress moved most of the federal holidays to Mondays, the holiday in February remained George Washington's birthday.

It was Richard Nixon who called it "Presidents' Day" by which he probably meant to include Washington and Lincoln, but the ignoramuses in the media turned it into a holiday in honor of all the Presidents (except for Washington's predecessors who were "Presidents of the United States in Congress Assembled" and of course Jefferson Davis).

Lincoln's birthday was never a federal holiday.

Yes, all true, though I refuse to call some random Monday in February “Washington’s Birthday.” And find 1 in 50 Americans who don’t call that phony event “Presidents Day.”
