A federal appeals court ruled Wednesday that the Pledge of Allegiance is an unconstitutional endorsement of religion and cannot be recited in schools.

This is conservatives punishment for shoving the phrase "under God" into the pledge of allegiance in the 1950s. It never had any business there and ought to be taken out. It wasn't there when we were growing up. I can remember how awkward it sounded when we had to start sticking it in.

Could spell trouble for dems come November... "Religious Whackos" may be out in force like 1980 and 1994.
