Oy vey!

Good grief! This "War on Christmas" nonsense is spinning out of control.

You all know me, and know the tenor of this site. I've expressed on numerous occasions my belief that, while Mr. Bush may be a "real nice guy", his entire Administration has more than proven its duplicity and incompetence, and should, for the safety of the nation, be removed by special election.

And yet, amazingly, I now find that I simply must rise to his defense.

The Washington Post reports today that George and Laura's Christmas cards (which wish supporters a happy "holiday season") are under attack by conservative Christian groups as not Christian enough. Sorry, but I thought there was an acceptance of the separation of Church and State among all you strict Constitutionalists.

And what's so wrong about wishing our fellow citizens "Happy Holidays" anyway? Seems pretty Christian to me. WaPo notes:

"This clearly demonstrates that the Bush administration has suffered a loss of will and that they have capitulated to the worst elements in our culture," said William A. Donohue, president of the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights.

Oy vey! Can someone please put a stop to this farce? I don't want to drive to Canada to enjoy a Christmas season free of stupidity - but I will if I have to.
