Jewish students no longer feel safe or welcome" at the Elbert County Charter School in Elizabeth, Colo.

I was raised as a Jew, and went to public school, which in those days enthusiastically celebrated Christmas. I always loved the traditions and symbols of Christmas -- especially the music.

The ACLU has no heart and no soul.

Can you imagine a Christian being offended by Hanukah? "Oh no, David mention Yom Kippur. I'm FRIGHTENED!!!". The ACLU is a joke.

And I was raised Catholic, but went to a pre-dominantly Jewish elementary school, and I *never* felt "unsafe" or threatened when Hannukah was celebrated.

I am a Catholic who attended NYC public schools and we not only sang "Silent Night" in school, but "Dreidle, Dreidle, Dreidle," too. I still remember it, and as far as I can remember, NOBODY was hurt, harmed, or offended.

These ACLU dogs are nuts.

Regards,

The ACLU should be outlawed, I went to school where we both Chrisitians and Jews looked forward to the holiday celebrations of Christmas and Hannukkah, we both made decorations as a Christmas tree, Dreidel, Monnorah, the star of David and of course Jesus,as gentiles and Christians we had no problem celebrating Jewish celebrations as our faith derived from Judiasm and our jewish friends wether they beleived Jesus was the Son of G-d or just a wonderful Jewish man, could embrace our holiday with the joy of giving to others and sharing friendship and love with family and friends, and we both agreed that G-d would love the fact we are celebrating that.
The ACLU well you know can go to???
