Christmas celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ but it’s also a federal holiday. Signed into law by President Ulysses S. Grant in 1870, the law acknowledges the United States’ Judeo-Christian tradition.
Bill O’Reilly commented in his Talking Points Memo, “Everything was swell up until about 10 years ago when creeping secularism and pressure from groups like the ACLU began attacking the Christmas holiday. They demanded the word Christmas be removed from advertising and public displays.”
Many people caved in to their demands, creating what O’Reilly has dubbed as the “Happy Holidays” syndrome.

I will never be politically correct, so, Merry Christmas everyone.
Merry Christmas to my Muslim President.
Merry Christmas!
But f*** Bill O'Reilly, Fox News, CNN, Drudge Report, and anyone dumb enough to think holidays are under attack. Do what you think is right, ignore the media, love your family and traditions will survive.
I use Happy Holidays because it covers them all, from Thanksgiving to New Years. Much ado about nothing.
