Well, you know what these people are... Atheistic posers that think it's cool to pretend to care about separation of church and state, but are somehow all thumbs when an actual bill concerning religious views gets passed. I hate both sides, anyway. They just want to manipulate things and use religion as a bargaining tool to get what they want.
Sure, I'm all for including people... but you can't make them feel included by renaming everything "Holiday." I'm sure Kwanzaa and Hanukkah don't have trees... and did you see the stores Holiday section? I've seen better Hanukkah stuff at a supermarket's Kosher section. Feh.

Not like if we all start singing "Jingle Bells" the world would implode, right?

If someone complains about that song, guess what? It has NOTHING to do with Christmas. It's about (to my recollection) Sleigh races they used to have in Medford, MA. It's a song you can sing during the 10th of January... add in Sliegh Ride and Winter Wonderland, and you have 3 "Christmas" songs that are basically generic winter songs that got mixed in with Christmas... Even Frosty didn't have a Christmas lyric shoved in their until the special.
