It’s a ‘Christmas’ tree in Kentucky again

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) - The tall, decorated tree on the Kentucky Capitol’s front lawn this holiday season will be called a “Christmas” tree after all.
    Last week, a statement from Gov. Steve Beshear’s administration referred to it as a “holiday” tree, angering some Christians.
    In an e-mail, the Democratic governor said the state was “using the same terminology that has been used in the past, which is intended to be inclusive of the entire holiday season, including Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, and New Year’s.“
    But Beshear’s spokeswoman now says that the governor, as well as state government, will be referring to the yuletide symbol only as a “Christmas” tree.
