The politically correct gestures of seasonal salutation (Happy Holidays, Seasons Greetings, etc.), which for too long have served as substitutes for the real thing, have become hollow, stale and boring. More and more the last couple of years, I have sensed a desire on the part of many to return to the traditional greeting, "Merry Christmas." Perhaps this has to do with the disillusionment of false hope proffered by those who told us that redemption lies in government.
