We send him and the Mrs a Lobster-Gram with the message "Happy Hannukah" on the card...Why can we not call each holiday by what it is? I don't wish muslim colleagues happy holidays during Ramadan-its Ramadan. I think that show far more respect and compassion towards our diversities.
As far as the politically correct holiday greetings, this is just one more way to cause and perpetuate animosity and division. A diversity problem for the liberals among us to "fix"-complete with specialists and training to help us know better. It is what it is.
