On Dec. 11, 2007, the U.S. House of Representatives approved a resolution acknowledging the significance of Christmas and Christianity. The resolution passed by just over 97 percent. That is right, 327 representatives approved of the resolution, and at least nine voted against it. Ten representatives voted "present," and 40 did not vote.

I was glad you printed this story. I had not heard this. I replied to my rep that I certainly hoped that he was there to cast his vote and that it was a 'YEA', big and strong.
