The true answer to Steve Douchey's question of "When did saying happy holidays start to bug you?" would be "When Fox News started telling us that it should bug us."

In the 1950s it was "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!" Somebody figured out both holidays could be covered with "Happy Holidays", and the practice spread. And nobody had a problem with rendering "Christmas" as "Xmas".

There never was an attack on Christmas. It was better use of space in advertising, a purely capitalistic motive.

There is a war on Christmas and you'll see it erupt here on this blog. I just have a policy of not declaring war on a that holiday until after Thanksgiving!!!!

When I was a kid, I learned to say "Happy Holidays" to be more friendly to non-Christians who might not need to hear "Merry Christmas." That is what Fox news is reacting to by inserting the presumption that "Happy Holidays" is annoying as part of the groundwork for their "Fair and even debate" bullshit. They are one inch away from being explicitly anti-semitic, anti-Muslim, and Racist.

Yeah, back in 1942, when Irving Berlin wrote that song, "Happy Holidays," it was really a Muslim Communist Kenyan plot to destroy America. I know this is true, because it's on the Internet.

And now, as we speak, Barack bin Obama is visiting his homeland to receive additional instructions.

I'm generally more tolerant than, say, Tom Flynn about having the trappings of New Testament mythology displayed over the holiday season and I sometimes do think that those insisting upon persons not saying the C-Word are nearly as silly and intolerant as the Fox News crowed who insist upon persons saying it regardless of their own philosophical convictions. Nevertheless, I do agree with Flynn that the end result of Fox News' conjuring up of this "War on Christmas" nonsense has been to turn what was once a happy greeting into basically a form of hate speech.

i couldnt agree more with skeptic cat. Nonsense has been to turn what was once a happy greeting into basically a form of hate speech.
