Bush sends Chanukah greetings

President Bush sent his annual greetings for Chanukah.

“As Jewish Americans prepare to light the Chanukah candles this year, we give thanks for God’s many blessings and His watch and care over our Nation,” Bush said in a statement. “We remember our many military families and ask God’s special blessing on those who have lost loved ones in freedom’s cause. We are grateful for the courage and commitment of America’s men and women in uniform and pray for their safety as they serve around the world to spread peace and liberty.”

8. Picking nits
Hanukkhah is not a winter solstice celebration. The best analogy I've seen is that is a Jewish 4th of July.
