Rep. Steve King Upset That Group of Democrats Opposed Christmas Resolution

Wednesday, December 12, 2007


WASHINGTON — One Republican House lawmaker is taking offense at nine Democrats for what he said should have been a no-brainer: recognizing the importance of Christians and Christmas.

In the end, the House on Tuesday supported Rep. Steve King's resolution to recognize "the Christian faith as one of the great religions of the world" and acknowledge "the international religious and historical importance of Christmas and the Christian faith."

But King, of Iowa, is upset that not everyone voted for his bill two weeks before an estimated 225 million Americans celebrate the Christian holiday even though the vote by usual standards would be a solid margin. The measure passed by a 372-9 vote, with 10 recording a neutral "present" vote and 40 members not voting.

Yes Virginia there is a war about Christmas going on, but perhaps it should more accurately be named "The War For Christmas" ?

We need a resolution for that?
