Gov. Bush's card also omits Christmas
Like his brother's Christmas cards, Gov. Jeb Bush's holiday card skirts the word Christmas, instead wishing its recipients ``every happiness for this season and throughout the coming year.''

The card, paid for by the Republican Party of Florida, features a Belleview 10th grader's depiction of children 'watering and nurturing the `tree of peace.' ''

It came as a bit of a letdown to Orlando's Matt Staver, president of the Liberty Counsel, which is among the religious groups seeking to put the ''Merry Christmas'' back into Christmas.

''I certainly am disappointed that the president and the governor can't acknowledge the national holiday that we're celebrating,'' Staver said. ``Just to generalize the holiday is a little distressing.''

1. Are all Bush supporters Christian?
He has no Jewish supporters? They do not celebrate Christmas. Hanuka doesn't count? It is December 26th this year. When did we become a CHRISTIAN THEOCRACY?

So much for JUDEO/Christian values.
