Orlando crazies at it again: Trying to make "Merry Christmas" official.

[The Backlash Cometh]

Anyone know Stephen Colbert's hotline? This place is ripe for plucking.

TALLAHASSEE, Florida— An Orlando lawmaker doesn't want to hear "Season's Greetings" or "Happy Holidays" on December 25 — just "Merry Christmas."

Florida Sen. Gary Siplin filed a resolution (SR 320) this week that would recognize "Merry Christmas" as the state of Florida's official greeting for December 25.

In the resolution, the Orlando Democrat writes that Christmas is a holiday of "great significance to most Americans" and that "many Christians and non-Christians" recognize the holiday as a time "to cherish and serve others."

It's not likely that a state employee would be punished for giving an alternate greeting. A resolution is often ceremonial and does not have the effect of law.

That shit will shrink your brain.
