Oh, Christmas Tree!
Filed Under Politics on Tuesday, December 12th 2006

If you have seen the news out of the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, you’d know that they have restored their Christmas trees (Holiday Trees?) after taking them down for a few days following a complaint from a rabbi that the holiday decorations at the airport should also include a menorah.

I’m looking for some help from my readers on this one (all 3 of you.) Are Christmas trees necessarily Christian and isn’t this why calling them “Holiday Trees” instead of “Christmas Trees” is a good idea? I mean, if folks like Bill O’ Reilly and Sean Hannity really are correct when they claim that there is a full scale “War on Christmas” (such crusaders for the truth, those two…) then doesn’t it make more sense to attempt to be as inclusive as possible during the holiday season to avoid any possible sneak attacks from the dark forces looking to steal Santa’s sleigh?

Do you even care?
