Why Does the President Mock Christ?

Ohhh... Bill O'Reilly isn't going to like that! By lighting a Menorah, isn't Bush paying lip service to diversity in a way not unlike saying "Happy Holidays" rather than "Merry Jesus' Birth?"

EDIT: Also, predictably, the Christian Right is very offended by George 'n' Laura's generic "holiday card":
Bush "claims to be a born-again, evangelical Christian. But he sure doesn't act like one," said Joseph Farah, editor of the conservative Web site WorldNetDaily.com. "I threw out my White House card as soon as I got it."
But, I mean, seriously... do they really expect them to send a Christmas card to Jack Abramoff?
