I thought you were all Liberals out there!

OLYMPIA, Wash. - The state's Christmas tree controversy has shifted from the airport to the Capitol, where the governor lit a menorah this week, but officials rejected a Nativity scene.

Contrary to what you may think, I'm not upset by the refusal to include a nativity, but rather by the inclusion of the menorah and then the denial of the nativity. WTF?

Because for some really really bizaare reason, the Menorah and the Christmas tree are considered equivalently religious symbols in some states, and "non-religious" symbols of a holiday in others.

I commented on the same inconsistency in the thread about the NY airport removing the trees story about a week or so ago.

I'm thinking maybe the Jewish folks just got better lobbyists?
