I hope and pray he doesn't repeat that line again for his sake when the final judgement from Heaven's Court decides his fate.

Newdow was able to be reached by cell phone for comment after the ruling. He was unaware that the appeals court had reached it's decision. Expressing disappointment that the ruling was against him, he said: "Oh man, what a bummer."

Hm

Newdow is one of the best arguments in the world for "looser pays".
