Question

If I may post this question for discussion.

A bone of contention at this time of year always seems to be, Christmas Tree, or Holiday Tree.

My question is: Is the Hanakuh Menora going to be called a "Holiday Candle Holder", or "Holiday Candelabra", :lol::?:

A Palm Tree is a Palm Tree, a Shade Tree is a Shade Tree, a Hanging Tree is a Hanging Tree and a Christmas Tree is a Christmas Tree.
There's no one in this world that will tell me differently. Why do people even listen to the lame PC arguements? They can call a tree anything they want to call it and I'll do the same. Ignore them.
Good Americans should boycot businesses that insist we change our references only to boost their sales, and the best Christmas present I could imagine would be news that the Crusades have restarted.

Are we allowed to say Christmas Present? I'll bet the businesses would say, "Yes."

Whoa, there's a salvo.

Do we still have some unfinished business with Saladin? From what I can tell he really kicked our butts over there. Even made us look like barbarians.

If a palm tree is a palm tree....wouldn't it be simply a pine tree:?:

Call it what you wish....I could care less. Sad that so many people get their chonies in a bunch over the issue.

Yeah, but things have changed, Igor. Tell me......how many Indian Casinos would be out there if Custer had only one machine gun?

But...but....that's the most important part, Barry. It's the retailers along with Salidan's whelp that are scolding you for your Christmas references.

Lock and load, amigo. We're never to old for righteousness. :lol:

You are right, Dennis---------I had a knee-jerk reaction when I saw the word "crusades"--------THIS time the "Crusade" is a noble one, for sure!!!! (Click)

I'm still waiting for an answer on the Hanakuh Menora, or Chanuka Menorah question from any Jewish PC Nomads out there in cyber land.:?:
