>>Georgia Town Renames Holiday Tree
(Snellville, GA) -- It is officially a "Christmas" tree in Snellville, Georgia. The mayor and city council voted unanimously to rename the "holiday tree" in Briscoe Park. Councilman Bruce Garraway authored the resolution putting Christmas back into the tree and said it was not to be bigoted to any other religions or anyone who celebrates anything else during the holiday season. This was just another in a series of Christmas versus holiday battles this year. Ousted Peachtree City Mayor Steve Brown got flack from residents when the city's tree was named "the Grand tree." Also, U.S. House Speaker Dennis Hastert ordered the Capitol holiday tree be called a Christmas tree.
