(using those exact words, not some watered down "happy holidays" thing). In effect, he's shown the Nation that it's ok to say Merry Christmas and that the sky will not fall on you for saying it.
What everyone seems to forget is that Christmas really is a shortened version of "Christ's Mass"... It a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. It's not a J ewish, African, Muslim, Hindu, or any other religion's celebration. The fact that all of them happen to fall somewhere in the same time period is immaterial. Being forced to say "happy holidays" for fear of offending someone is, in itself, offensive to me and to every other Christian, because it hinders us from wishing fellow Christians a Happy and Joyous Christmas holiday. So, to all my fellow Christian brothers and sisters, on this most holy day of days I wish you all a MERRY CHRISTMAS. And I wish a happy festivus to the rest of us..

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
