"The singers were singing "we wish you a happy holiday" instead of a Merry Christmas...."

So? We have official holidays of Thanksgiving, Christmas and new Years, all in a row. In addition, there are other holidays at this time, both religious and secular. Honda is in the business of selling cars. What is their motivation for being exclusionary?

Bushies are not real Christians. So why are you people so concerned about making this a 100% Christian country? Happy Holidays is not allowable in your mind? Why not? Jefferson said all religions should be treated equally, including those with no religion, including athiests and everyone else. Nobody is stopping anyone from celebrating Christ's birth

Besides, Christ would be against American's materialistic Christian, and against Bushies. Bushie policies violate Christ's #1 teachings. Primarily to take from the rich and give to the poor. Bushies do the opposite. Their new spending bill idea slashes Medicaid and food stamps and gives the rich yet another big tax cuts they don't need.

Christ said love thy neighbor don't smear him and cuss him.

Christ would also not approve of lying to the country to start a big war.

Christ would also not approve of all the corruption and the pandering to polluters.

The only real Christian presdient we've had has been Carter. And you people vilify and smear him.

just saw a Honda Civic commercial on TV. The singers were singing "we wish you a happy holiday" instead of a Merry Christmas....

Do you think the only people who buy Hondas are XMAS believing Christians? What country do you think you live in.......Iceland? There are all kinds of holidays practiced by all kinds of religions and ethnicities in this country. So the best way to handle that complexity is to say Happy Holidays. Honda wants to sell cars rather than cater to the prejudicies of the Steve Harrises of the world.

And then there are the athiests........
