It's not banned but alot of companies do it to appease religious minorities.

So it's not banned, end of story.


I know of some that have completely banned CHRISTMAS songs from schools.

I don't know which ones you are referring to, but the the "examples" Bill O'reilly gave turned out to be false/lies (big surprise.)

You guys are placing all of this heat on immigrants... but the businesses are the ones making their own decisions.  It's their decision what to call their sale, if they think "Holiday sale" will attract more customers than "Christmas sale", then that's their call.  If you're so worked up about it, boycott the stores and prove them wrong.  Of course not one person here has proven that stores are "forced" to call it a holiday sale, because I hardly think that's the case.

Business and religion are two very different things ladies and gents.

That's not true.  I will agree that O'Reilly has hyped the situation to be bigger than it is, but there have been schools that have banned christmas songs.  Just as there are communities that have banned the nativity scence.  Just because you don't like the agenda and beliefs of O'Reilly doesn't mean you can go around and denounce everything he says as Lies.

Read what I said. I said: "I don't know which ones you are referring to......" Implying that there certainly may be schools that have banned Xmas carols. However, the ones OR used as an example on Letterman, turned out to be a blatant lie which was exposed less than 12 hrs after the show aired.

When I search on this subject I see mostly right wing websites (The same website that claimed soy products turn our children gay, also showcased this "subject") reporting on this. Which leads me to believe that it is hyped up, exaggerated, or in some cases (OR) downright false. Perhaps you could provide us with an Ann Coulter article to prove me wrong..........

The guy gets caught lying about once a week. I'd classify that as "LIAR".

the shops wouldnt be making these decisions though if they wernt pressured in some sort of way.
