One more time. This was not a secular action to remove religion. It was a conservative action to include religion.

One more time. This was not a secular action to remove religion. It was a conservative action to include religion... You left out "by threatening with a Federal lawsuit the removal of other religious (traditional) symbols if his symbols were not included." According to your understanding of the situation he did not achieve his goal -- but he did get what he threatened. It is interesting to note that the goals of the ACLU are the same results the Rabbi achieved. Just remember, SEATAC displayed Christmas trees for the past 25 years. This year they won't because the Rabbi threatened them with his lawsuit. I think he has the ACLU intimidation tactics down to a tee.

you mean...if you keep repeating the same words, in the face of circumstances that indicate something different, that it will change the facts?

onto the slippery, dangerous slope he climbed....

One more time. I agree with the idea of menorahs in public at Hannukah. I disagreed with the Sharpton-style method of trying to achieve it, and your bitterness in suspecting that it was all Christian malevolence against Jews instead of taking the airport spokesperson's socialist denial of religion ("these are holiday trees) at face value. So we agree more than we disagree.
