'Merry Christmas' Lunch Menus Kicked Out Of Schools (PROJECT X IS WORKING)

:D

<snip>

SEATTLE -- Lunch menus imprinted with the words "Merry Christmas" have been discarded and replaced in the Federal Way school district south of Seattle.

The December lunch menus for all 23 elementary schools were recalled and reprinted with the words "Happy Holidays" at a cost of almost $500.

A school district spokeswoman said printing "Merry Christmas" on the menus violated school system policies because "it has a religious connotation for some people."

The 11,500 calendar-style menus were never distributed and were recycled.

1. "Merry Christmas" has a religous conotation for some people?

Who knew? I thought it was all about the heart warming sound of thighs in spandex rubbing together and the occupational like habit of shopping.
