Springfield official at Hanukkah menorah lighting: 'Jesus is the reason for the season'
quote:
Jaws dropped in Springfield's Court Square Tuesday afternoon when Springfield City Councilor Bud Williams offered his take on the annual city menorah lighting ceremony.
"Jesus is the reason for the season," Williams said during remarks at the ceremony that marks the beginning of the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah.

Williams no doubt was referencing Jesus Christ, whose birth is celebrated every Dec. 25 by Christians worldwide ... but not by Jews.

Was it done out of spite or ignorance?

I'm guessing this is not Springfield, LA.
Because of the Jews.
Because of the Jews.

The councilor said his remark wasn't meant as an expression of religious superiority or "dominance," but rather as a simple reminder about the "reason for the season." "Jesus was Jewish," Williams said. "To me, Jesus is the messiah ... I thought I was being very positive."
Williams said some people thanked him for his remarks. "A couple of the rabbis walked up to me and said, 'Great comments, Mr. Williams.' "
Those rabbis were trolling the shite out of that dummy.
