She should be ordered not to utter words of any religious importance. Singling "Christmas" out is ridiculous.

Selective use of the 1st Amendment, CiaJ?

Ok, I'll be the first one to take the bait!

"She should be ordered not to utter words of any religious importance."

I think your forgetting something Crazy, it's called the first amendment!

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Now explain to me how she can be ordered not to utter the word Christmas???

I understand your very liberal and you believe the separation of church and state offers you blanket protection from any sign of government sanctioned religion, ie. a government official saying Merry Christmas! However, there is no court in the land that would say that, because she is employed by the government she cant say the word Christmas while performing her duties in an official capacity!

Moving to Various Topics!
