Skip, I'll pass on the whole retarded comment
and move straight to the tree issue.
The practice of decorating a tree in the name of Jesus really has only been around for 150 years or so, and it wasn't even that popular until this century.
It's roots are in pagan rituals that can be traced back to the Egyptians and Romans to celebrate the winter solstice.
Also, many Jewish people now put up a tree with blue lights...it's festive, and for them has nothing to do with Jesus.
So call it whatever you want, but remember there are others celibrating the season that may have a different angle.
And stop listening to O'Riley and Hannity
