The US Supreme Court ruled in 1989 that both Christmas trees (as opposed to nativity scenes) AND menorahs are sufficiently secular so as to not violate the establishment clause.
The rabbis was simply asking that a menorah be added. IMO, the whiny and narrow-minded are the ones who have verbally assaulted the rabbi.
