The White House's war on Christmas

Americans United made this observation in a recent statement:

The White House’s 2005 holiday card is just out, and it doesn’t mention the word “Christmas” once.

The card, mailed under the auspices of the Republican National Committee and signed by the president and his wife, reads, “With best wishes for a holiday season of hope and happiness 2005.” It also includes a passage from the Old Testament Book of Psalms.

The front cover is an artist’s rendition of the White House and grounds covered with snow while the presidential pets, two dogs and a cat, frolic on the lawn. It contains no religious symbolism.

Who's Jerry Falwell to trust, if not Fox and the White House? And how can I get one of these amazing liberal mind-control devices that's turning solid conservatives into lily-livered secularists? Just think of the Christmas... err, holiday presents I could score.
