We're Just One Nation

In the past, I wondered about the inclusion of "one nation, under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance. I need wonder no more, it's been deemed unconstitutional by a US Federal Court.

Wow, that's a big one. I can already hear the pontifications (pun intended) from the right about this.

So what about the "In God We Trust" printed on the Holy Greenback? I mean, She has kept the currency pretty stable over the years...

Didn't take our esteemed lawmakers (from across the entire spectrum, no less) even half a day to wrap themselves in God and call the rulling "stupid" and "nuts". Some even said they'd push for a constitutional amendment authorizing the words "under God".

I am so glad that they no longer have anything more pressing to do.
