You can run around and shout Merry Christmas all you want. You cannot, however, tell businesses that they must have a Christmas party or that the president must send out Christmas cards.
So, Christmas is different than all the other federal holidays?
If my office has a Labor Day picnic we should be sensitive to non-laborers and call it an "Early September Picnic?"
Or to spare the delciate feelings of non-veterans, if the President were to hold a Veterans Day reception he should have to call it "Mid-November Celebration in Honor of People that Wore Uniforms during times of National Crisis"?
Please tell me why the official name given to the National Holiday on December 25th is so unacceptable.
Yes I can. I am free to withhold my business from stores that censor the word Christmas - - even though everybody knows that it's Christmas shoppers that they're selling to. I predict you'll see more and more organized efforts, even boycotts, by Americans who are tired of the politically correct censorship of the word, Christmas. Just as the anti-Christmas bigots and the PC police are free to try to censor the word, the rest of us are free to complain, and to punish them at the marketplace.
