It was used by protesters during the cold war who tried to tie our hands in defense. Had Reagan listened to them we would have lost the Cold War.
Try as you might it was political then and political now.
Yes, protestors standing on the streets 'tied' the national government's hands. You know you're crediting a small minority of people quite a bit. Of course if it was a larger group, shouldn't they have a say in the political realm? Or do they not deserve it because they wanted peace?

And yet he and Nixon both signed nuclear disarmament treaties, the very purpose for the peace symbol in 1958.

That can be said about anything. The energy this guy spends on the lights could be considered political by some. Not very much the conservationist is he?
My point is 'conservatives' need to quit complaining about every damn thing surrounding this time of year and just enjoy the light show as it was intended!!
