Sheesh - the adults stepped in. Now if we could only get the children to stop yelling at one another...

Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah, all!

I suppose demands for Kwanzaa recognition will soon follow.

If only our last election could be undone as easily.
"Hey! I never meant to actually put the Dems in charge!"
Sorry, I couldn't resist the parallels with protesting and unintended consequences and all......

The disingenuous of this rabbi is nauseating, and for some reason a lot of the local talk show hosts are taking him at his word. He tried to bully the airport with the threat of litigation, and now he whines that this isn't what he wanted. What a jerk.

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Sea-Tac always called them "Holiday Trees"

The media pushed the "Christmas Tree" issue.

It was NEVER about "Christmas Trees" until the media, and the Rabbi got involved.

[Salvation]

Hopefully the rabbi will buy them a display menorah to go up too!

[Manic_Episode]

Oy.

[Lancey Howard]

That's pretty cool. I guess that rabbi who threatened to sue took more flak than he was prepared for. But maybe now, after seeing all the hubub, the scumbag athiests over at the Democrat ACLU will jump in - - they have absolutely no shame and would love the publicity.

The Christmas Trees are returning to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.

Port of Seattle officials said they decided tonight to put the trees back up after Rabbi Elazar Bogomilsky and his Central Organization for Jewish Education Lubavitch said they would not file a threatened lawsuit.

aaaarrrrrrrrrrgggghhhhhhhh

[newzjunkey]

Absolutely ridiculous to have taken the down to start with.

[PAR35]

Now that the trees are back up, he can get on with his lawsuit.

[Fitzcarraldo]

Let each group (Jews, Athiests, Pagans, etc.) be allowed to hang one ornament on the trees.

[DaveMSmith]

they would also have to display symbols of other religions and cultures, which was not something airport workers had time for during the busiest travel season of the year.

So they took all the trees down and are putting them back up again? They found time for all that?
