....taking "under God" out of the pledge of allegiance...


Isn't it great we live in a country where a federal appeals court can
declare the Pledge of Allegiance unconstitutional because the words "under
God" are a violation of separation of church and state?

Well, you know something, your honors: following that logic, wouldn't the
fact that you were sworn in with your hand on a Bible render you
unemployed?

Or maybe we should respond by withholding your obviously unconstitutional
"In God we trust" paychecks, huh? Or why don't we just change the phrase to
"One nation under a crushing blanket of overly sensitive political
correctness?"

If you haven't heard, Michael Newdow, a 49-year old atheist, created a
media sensation this week after bringing a lawsuit on behalf of his 8-year
old daughter. Well, Mikey, you did a great job of protecting your kid,
didn't ya? Put her in the middle of this jingoistic maelstrom. Yeah, you
are the "Dad of the Year." Why don't you pick your trophy up when it's safe
to come out of hiding?

By the way, to all the people out there making death threats against this
man and his daughter: if God had wanted you to kill in His name, you'd be
living in the Middle East, not the Midwest.

Well, anyway, it's good to know that all children are now guaranteed the
right to come into their classroom in the morning and burn the flag, as
long as they don't salute it.

You know folks, I haven't quite figured out the math on this one yet, but I
think the aggrieved minority in this culture now is the majority.
And, by the way, to the two judges who authored this fiasco: instead of
church and state, maybe you should be worried about the separation of your
head and your butt.

Sikotic™:
It's the truth. Change the currency and the Constitution too. Don't just do a half-ass job and take "under God" out the Pledge.

Did ya'll miss that?  I've been saying for the longest that Dennis Miller is racist and prejudice against Muslims.  

The popular phrase working behind American's colonial expansion since the days of Andrew Jackson has always been "God Bless America."  

When Polk was president he openly suggested this and the phrase still implies that American's are somehow more closely connected to God, and that it is the will of God that America expand it's Empire.  America used Christianity to justify slavery, saying that all slaves were decendants of Noah's evil son, Ham, and that they deserved the punishment.  And during the Crusades and the expansion of Constantine's European Empire thousands were killed in the name of Jesus Christ, the Christian God.

Therefore, it is unfair for Dennis Miller to say that if you want to kill in the name of G-d then move to the Middle East.  G-d has always been used by people to get what they want.  Eldridge Cleaver even said while he was in prison that all he saw religion for was secret, hidden codes for war.
