I could care less if folks say "Happy Holidays". I object to having to buy a Holiday Tree as an object to hang my Holiday Tree Topper with my Holiday ornaments.

Now, tell me. How many Hanukkahites and Kwanzaites are going to buy Holiday trees, Holiday Tree Toppers and Holiday ornaments? They could probably get away with giving each other Holiday cards.

Sorry, it doesn't have anything to do with a greeting. It has to do with they've finally gotten to the point where political correctness has driven the retailers to hide Christmas because they are afraid of offending someone. Not because they want to be inclusive (barf). But they continue to expect us to continue to layout cash just because of the time of year it is.

Screw 'em.

You might find occasional instances of silliness, but jeepers.... take it for what it is. It's not meant to offend, it's retailers and other public places being absolutely terrified of being sued or boycotted by every Tom Dick and Harry with an opinion on this. Cut them some slack. It's a damn crabby impossible to please country and they're just doing the best they can.

Now that they've gotten this far, the next step is trying to do away with Christmas all together.
