Bill O'Reilly, among others, is taking great offense that a lot of stores are asking their employees to wish people a "happy holiday" rather than a "merry Christmas." He's actually getting strident about this, accusing someone (not sure who) of fighting a war against Christmas.
At first I thought a good idea would be to start a grassroots movement to overwhelm O'Reilly with cards that wish him "happy holidays" and send "season's greetings," since he seems to believe these sorts of well wishes are offensive. But maybe it would be better to send him greetings for every holiday he doesn't celebrate, whether religious, national or what-not. I'm sure he'd be glad if we wished him an easy fast for Yom Kippur, or Ramadan Mubarak during the month of Ramadan; not to mention the various Buddhist, Hindu, Zoroastrian, etc. holidays. And let's not forget that the Christian Orthodox liturgical calendar is different from the Western one, so we should all wish that he celebrate Christmas, Easter, etc., at least twice.
