#1 Does Michael A. Newdow, know about this? If he can win his case with the 9th circuit, then this should not even be addressed.

#4 For the past few years, we've already done a combo Ramadan/Mohammed's birthday recognition every year on Sept. 11.. Any more recognition may force us to bring out the fireworks.

#5 Like it Ed, Ramadan fireworks. Yeah. Seriously, 1 National Salute at the sighting of the new moon would be good clean American Fun.

#7 Maybe Congress should establish Ash Wednesday (the beginning of the Christian Lenten season) as a National Holiday. Plus the Jewish equivalent, if they have one. And the Hindu festival. And Buddhist, and Wiccan,...

Otherwise, it seems to me they are just establishing a religion, or at least recognizing one more than others.

Seems to me there is something in the Bill of Rights against that, but who cares about that old thing?
