Quote: Commack School District Superintendent James Feltman said he told the district's transportation supervisor that the hat could stay since it was not a religious object, was not distracting to the driver, and didn't interfere with the driver's duties.

ENOUGH reasons to stop the 'problem' right?

Yes, unfortunately, the U.S. is full of whiners... Authorities are constantly embarrassing everyone else. Who cares if a small fraction of the country is offended by nativity scenes or doves at Christmastime? The Few don't own the world, there is such a thing as the Tyranny of the Individual, and I think that the US has more of those tyrants than any other place in the world.

Meh! Christmas to me has nothing to do with some fat man with a white beard,in a red suit. There is a little bit more meaning in this holiday than that

Looks like a storm in a glass of water, most non-believers even enjoy the Santa-thing, there is no religious undertone at all, if one thing has been de-religified it's Santa.

What's there to dislike about a feast that celebrates peace on earth and the changing of the seasons? That the Christians kidnapped it and used it as the birthday of their saviour doesn't bother me either, a birth is still a happy thing.
