Why can't Santa be Jolly?

I laughed when I read this, is this really what it is coming to? You can't say Merry Christmas anymore. You can't even put up red and green lights anymore, all white ones are now PC but a little racist if you ask me. The city of Ft. Collins isn't even putting up Christmas trees this year, but snowflakes instead. Now Santa can't say "ho-ho-ho" cause he is going to offend every woman within earshot? I think we are taking all of this a little too seriously and it is taking the fun out of Christmas.....Oh, oops.....I mean the Day On Which Some People Choose to Exchange Gifts and Be Merry....you know D.O.N.W.S.P.C.E.G.B.M. Kinda catchy, don't you think? Maybe Festivus is the way to go, and I'll start out with the Airing of Grievances! It's a Festivus MIRACLE!
