It Doesn't Feel Much Like Christmas Any More

It looks like Political Correctness has overtaken the Seattle airport.

Nine Christmas trees were taken away from Seattle's airport on Saturday morning after a local Chabad Rabbi requested the airport place a hanukkia next to the trees, [Israeli - ed.] Army Radio reported early Monday morning.

The incident occurred in the early hours of the morning, when passenger presence in the airport was minimal.

"We decided to get rid of the trees so as not to insult anyone, we try to take everyone into consideration," said the airport's spokesman.
I never heard of a hanukkia before. So I found a picture of one. It is just a Chanukah menorah.

Everybody wants something. First it is the Christians, then the Jews, then the Budhists, the Islamics, the Zoroastrians, and your 500 sects of Pagans. Better to avoid the hassle all together.
