No More Holiday Tree in DC
Hastert has lost points with me lately, due to the massive overspending in Congress, but he gains them back for proclaiming the tree a Christmas Tree, instead of a “Holiday” Tree, as has been the custom since the (surprise) Clinton regime.
I realize expecting some minimal rationality from liberal multiculturalists is stretching it, but would somebody please explain to me how calling it a Christmas Tree is “insensitive”? How neurotic do you have to be to be offended, or have your widdle feewings hurt — I mean, what kind of sad loser are you, if you object to it being called exactly what it is: a Christmas Tree?
No doubt the leftists and liberaltarians will be up in arms about this. I’m surprised I haven’t seen anything about the ACLU filing suit.
Hat tip to Gunn Nutt.
