They should ban all holidays.

Hey I like my three day weekend.

There will be another about the same time next month, then Turkey Day, Christmas and such.

We have several in front of us, as much as like my federal Holidays, I do not like what the fact that it slows down our paperwork.

That's silly.

The USA barely takes any holidays as it is. The only reason hubs gets them is because he works for the feds.

Obama was complaining about the Redskins but supports Columbus. Time for executive action.
