Memo to Palin and Hannity: This is not "Easter Week." This is Holy Week (and it is not happy)

Listen, I don't purport to be an expert on Christianity. And, I certainly don't flaunt religion like so many of our elected officials do.

But, if you're going to wear your Christianity on your sleeve, here's an idea: Get the basic facts right.

Last night, on FOX, Sarah Palin said to Sean Hannity, "Happy Easter Week, Sean." He responded, "And, Happy Easter Week to you."

Huffington Post has the video. You can see this exchange at around the 1:30 mark.

Here's one important thing: it's not Easter Week. Any practicing Christian knows (or should know) this is Holy Week. And, it's not a "Happy" Week -- it's the most solemn week in the liturgical calender. This is, after all, the week Jesus died. Seriously, this is as basic as it gets in Christianity.

H/T Mike Signorile. He knows it's Holy Week, not Easter Week. Next week is Easter Week.
