People should just stick to a simple greeting, such as:

"Happy birthday to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who because of the treachery of teh Joos, later died, but that was OK because eternal salvation in heaven for everyone except the descendents of those Joos and teh Musselmenz, who are all probably G-Y-A anyway. Oh, and too, also the Moirémenz."

The "silly lawsuits" are his way of describing people exercising their Constitutional right to be free from government establishing religion. Of course Republicans don't like most (all!) of the Constitution except the second half of the Second Amendment.

So you are telling me that there are politicians out there manufacturing outrage about things that don't exist, just so that they can then "solve" these problems and be the hero?

Bullshit. Never happen.

Brings back memories of profile pics on Facebook with an arrow at one's name, saying "This person says Merry Christmas". Like that is somehow a bold political statement.

I don't think this annual Legislative shit-turd thing is working out. We need to award this weekly, if not daily.
