ABC News: White House Holiday Cards Create Political Divide

ABC News: White House Holiday Cards Create Political Divide:

"He is the most popular president among conservative Christians, but the greeting card he sent out this year was not Christian — or Christmasy — enough for some.

The card — with a photo of the family pets, a gold seal, and scripture from the Old Testament — reads 'Best Wishes for the Holiday Season' and not 'Merry Christmas.'

That infuriated William Donahue of the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights.

'At a time when a lot of Christians today are very upset about the way our society is dumbing down Christmas,' he said, 'they certainly don't want to see the president of the United States chiming in. We know he is a man of courage, so why is he giving in to the forces of political correctness?'"
