As a proud white guy, there is nothing more that makes me happy celebrating and wishing everyone a very merry white Christmas every year. The ACLU will not like this along with many liberals who have taken political correctness to extreme levels of absurdity. All states should adopt a bill like Texas.
State lawmakers in Texas have passed legislation that permits public schools to display nativity scenes, menorahs, or Christmas trees, and allows students and school district staff to use greetings such as, “Merry Christmas,” “Happy Hanukkah,” and “Happy Holidays.”
According to Fox News in Austin, the legislation (HB 308), introduced by Rep. Dwayne Bohac (R-Houston) and dubbed “The Merry Christmas Bill,” received overwhelming approval in the state house, by a margin of 145-2, and was passed unanimously in the state senate, 29-0. The bill will now be sent to Gov. Rick Perry (R) for his signature.
“I was a little flabbergasted and a little upset that we’ve become so politically correct that we can’t call a federal holiday by its name,” Bohac said. “Teachers have enough on their plate to worry about the school districts going to be sued or if they can call a Christmas tree a Christmas tree.”

Agreed. PC had been taken too far by the extremist, intolerant Leftists. How any reasonable person could argue against this is likely part of that lunatic fringe group.

As a nation we need to out law political correctness and then ban it forever. PC is a form of insanity. I am not a village and i an not interested in raising idiots or feeding anyone one but me and that's why i grow all my own food.
Anything in my garden will be eaten. If it is another man Oh Well
in that case it will be dead beetles doing the eating.
Everyone that comes here is warned about water.
Yet they move here to their HOA subdivisions that mandate green lawns.
The huge influx of new residents is just making a precarious situation with water worse.
It seems like a more important issue to resolve than saying "merry christmas". But as long as the residents of the state are happy, I could care less.
