Stop by Bryant Park this week and you'll notice a nice, classy Sukkah, or ceremonial hut, where Jews celebrate the eight-day harvest holiday of Sukkot. The Chabad Lubavitch of Midtown Manhattan pays $10,000 to set up the structure, but it's open to people of all faiths to eat, sit, pray, or just hang out. That's tempting, but isn't the structure taking away precious park space for religious purposes, and violating the constitutional separation of Church and State? Where are the tea-baggers, y'all?
