If SeaTac takes down all displays of anything, they don't lose. If the menorahs go up, somebody will sue. Probably the ACLU. Even with the SCOTUS ruling, they'll sue. The lawsuit itself is the weapon, not the verdict.

(I coined "Senator Ass" to describe Jim Webb. He may have already used it as a character in a novel.)

The lawsuit itself is the weapon, not the verdict. For better or worse this is long settled, public displays can't include one religion and bar others. There are public religious displays all over the country with Christmas Trees and Menorahs, even Crescents, without the purported problems Sea-Tac envisioned. The ACLU is far beyond this, they'd be measuring tree size and Menorah size.
