DALLAS - Americans are ready to put “Merry Christmas” back into holiday shopping, a poll shows.

The Zogby International poll found most Americans of the almost 13,000 surveyed - 95 per cent - said they were not offended by a “Merry Christmas” greeting in stores.

However, 32 per cent of respondents took offence at “Happy Holidays”, the religiously neutral alternative promoted during the past few years as inclusive and inoffensive.

So 95% of Americans aren’t offended if someone tells them Merry Christmas, meaning that all these knee jerk “we can’t mention Christmas” policies are pretty stupid.

On the flip side, 32 percent of Americans (presumably Christians) are offended when Merry Christmas isn’t used, making them seem every bit as reactionary as the people who don’t want to use it in the first place.

So who is it, exactly, that’s being unreasonable in this fight that emerges every holiday season?  I report, you decide.
