[history]
The ACLU says the message 'God Bless America' divides kids by religion and is unconstitutional.
A demand by the American Civil Liberties Union that Breen Elementary School in Rocklin remove a "God Bless America" sign prompted angry parents, students and administrators to rally at the school Friday evening.

Why don't they change it to "In God We Trust."
And when is the ACLU going to sue the U.S. Mint?

Stella Richardson, media relations director for the ACLU of Northern California, said, "It is entirely unprecedented" for a school not to take down a message such as Breen displays.
Translation: Something's just not right. Usually they roll over for us (ACLU terrorists).

If only every school district stood up to the ACLU like this. The stand being taken by the ACLU does not promote freedom or protect civil liberties. The Bill of Rights guarantees freedom of speech. It also rightly separates church and state. God is not a church. Our children are not the state.

The ACLU couldn't have picked a worse time for this nonsense. May God indeed bless America, and remove these idiotic notions from our sight!

I keep waiting for the wild and crazy idiots over there to do that next.
To: lavaroise
Who died and left ACLU in charge of the world? Where does this self-appointed bunch get off by imposing their views on the rest of us? Do we have to obey the unjust legal rulings they foist on the unsuspecting public? How about a little civil disobedience to their edicts?
To: JA
What you need to understand is that some of us will NEVER accept a Godless taxpayer (ME) funded public sector. Thats not to hard to understand is it?-MM

Hmmmmm. "Allah Bless America" has an interesting ring to it! Today, I noticed that a local Catholic church has a beautiful flag displayed at its rectory, but the church itself was flagless ... keep Church and State apart! Our mental efforts with regard to our civil and, in these times both corporal and fiscal rights, would be better spent on demanding that our government revoke all the H-1 Visas in this country who have taken jobs from United States citizens, no? Thanks for the post. Susan M. Davidson - my e-mail: susan@susanmdavidson.com

We could send the whole "lot" of them (ACLU) over to talk to Osama bin Laden (tell him their his "defense team"), and then nuke 'em all at once. :) :)
That's getting rid of two evil groups at once (save our cruise missiles...).
