Washington-Lincoln Day - washingtonpost.com:
Last month the country took off a Monday for an important holiday of fairly recent vintage. The name on that day is King, as it should be. It's not called Civil Rights Leaders' Day. So should the names on this Monday be Washington and Lincoln. Without them, this could have been a very different country from what most of us want it to be. Without our attention to their lives and lessons, we could yet become such a nation.
On the other hand, when the day is marked by a mattress sale, how much honor are we really giving them no matter what the day is named?
