At a Monday meeting, a local Dayton, Texas City council approved the purchase of new street decorations for the city. Much of the nearly $10,000 budget approval is for banners to display over Dayton city streets at Christmas, but according to one councilman none of the items in the selection they were shown celebrated Christmas.
Any effort to spend that kind of money with the kind of political correctness we hear about from liberal Democrats was nipped in the bud by Dayton City Councilman, Mr. Bill Gay. Sources revealed to Liberty Dispatch that the Councilman commented he was “offended” by the banners that had been selected.
The banners all expressed Christless sentiments about the time of year like “Happy Holidays” and “Seasons Greetings”. Liberty Dispatch joins Councilman Gay in believing the banners should say something about the birth of Jesus Christ. The conservative majority should not allow a liberal minority decide what the Christmas decorations are going to look like in our community.

Over here in Liberty, I am not so sure the Picketts and Norwoods and the Strattons would allow much of a city celebration of Jesus.
What is this Country comming to, with all this political correctness crap. Christmas is Christmas as far as I am concerned and it should be celebrated as such and not as a Happy Holiday or anything else. This Country was founded on Christian beleifs. If you don't beleive it, just look on the money,it says "IN GOD WE TRUST"
Kudos to Council Man Bill Gay. Finally someone with enough gusto to say what they believe.

It amazes me how clueless people continue to make authoritative comments. The first commenter on this story must not know the Picketts at all...one of the most upstanding and devout Catholic families in the community, who celebrate Christmas for what it is-the birth of Christ.
