Casloy quote:Look, if people are offended by the change from Merry Christmas to Happy Holidays they should shop somewhere else, and even let the retailer know why. But, organized boycotts over things that are not that significant take away from where we can truly make a difference. I'd rather see all this energy be put toward school vouchers, abortion, so called right to die, and a myriad of other issues where we can really change the culture.

What is the right supposed to do when the left censors Christmas from the public square and private business. Lay down and let their bodies be walked on. Removing Christmas is a stepping stone to giving the left more power to defeat school vouchers, pro life, and other issues.

It's not the left, it's a bunch of misguided CEOs who think this makes sense. They are worried about the bottom line and not being political or leftist.

(Applause) Thank you! I'm not talking "political right" here, I'm talking "Christians". We have given them too many inches and they have taken too many miles. The Christmas holiday, for Christians, is supposed to be a day of such unbridled joy that it spills over to those of other faiths and cultures. We have done that so successfully, its become a commercial windfall. That's a good thing.
The bad thing is when our businesses take OUR wonderful day of celebration, hijack it, change its name, so people of other faiths and cultures feel "comfortable" celebrating it!
