I agree...this is ridiculous! Happy Holidays is ok. It can refer to Christmas, Hannukah and New Years! Say Christmas if you want...no one used to get upset before. If I knew someone was not Christian I said, Happy Holidays. They often said Merry Christmas to me.
I don't see a lot of people complaining about hearing "Happy Holidays" from store employees. That's not the real issue here. Personally, it doesn't bother me at all, nor would it offend me if a Jewish person wished me a happy Hannukkah.
However, it does offend me when retailers engage in sillyness like changing the name of Christmas trees to "Holiday trees". What else would the trees be? The retailers are sending a strong signal that they'd rather make the 1% of American ACLU-loving moonbats happy than the 96% of American that celebrate Christmas.
As a long-term customer, that offends me, so I'll simply take my business to another retailer that isn't ashamed of me and my Christian holy day.

Would a store sell Holiday Seven-Branched Candelabrum Kits? I think not. As many people said to me Happy Thanksgiving as they said Happy Christopher Columbus day. In other words, not many.
Every Liberal knows by attacking the Christian faith with political correctness it is a direct assualt on Christian Conservatives. There is nothing good natured about it. It is a mean, spit in your face attack. Just calling it like it is.
