Who cares ... carry one of those smaller cans of spray paint ... every time you see a “holiday’ or ‘winter’ anything ... just be one of the people that changes it back to ‘Christmas festival of lights’ or ‘Christmas trees for sale’ ... at 2 in the morning ... who knows?

Mama Boss Nancy Pelosi and Dingy Harry have gotten this year's work done: Acclaiming Christmas!

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus

It’s true, but a legislative body should not be doing that. It’s not their role.

"I would vote against it because it is absolutely pointless."

I agree, but then people like Barbara Boxer would run political ads against you claiming how you are "anti-Christmas".

U.S. House Salutes Christmas and Christianity, but 9 Vote "no"

CAPITOL HILL (AP) -- The U.S. House has passed a resolution "Recognizing the importance of Christmas and the Christian faith" -- but it wasn't unanimous.

The measure was approved by a vote of 372-to-9, with all of the "no" votes cast by Democrats. A similar resolution recognizing the importance of Ramadan and the Islamic faith was passed unanimously in October.

The 9 votes against the Christmas resolution were cast by Gary Ackerman and Yvette Clarke of New York; Diana Degette of Colorado; Alcee Hastings of Florida; Jim McDermott of Washington; Bobby Scott of Virginia; and Barbara Lee, Pete Stark and Lynn Woolsey of California
