I think its all rediculous. Its a free country! Why can't have the word Christmas in your ads? Fine, put Happy Holidays. People are making to much of a deal about this. Theres a war going on!!!

In this climate of political correctness (what a load of rubbish that term is) stores are afraid of being sued simply for saying "Merry Christmas" Look at the stink over the "under God" in the pledge. I thought in a democracy the majority ruled, therefore if 9 people want Merry Christmas and the 10th doesn't, sorry. But that is not the case anymore. The office where I work puts up a Menorah (my apologies if I mispelled that) a Kwanzaa display and a Christmas tree. There is no representation for the Christians with a nativity scene. Does that bother me, a little yes that my religious believes are not being reflected but I am not sue happy no easily offended. I remember a K-mart commercial that sang about Christmas and Zayre's being open late leading up to Christmas (using Rock Around the Clock for a jingle)..
