A P.C. holiday...

That's why I love living in a rural area of the US that still has; Merry Christmas on banners and decorations, a Christmas tree and Christmas vacation and all of this is in the public school. God bless the Central Basin of Washington State or any other region like this.
Oh, on the God bless thing, they also say the pledge of alegance, with God in it. If a child wishes not to say it the are allowed to leave the class room so they have the oppurtunity to express their freedom of choice.

This is not to say they don't have the other things it's just that the majority (yes majority still rules in our neck of the woods, I mean sagebrush) believes in Christmas.
