President-elect Barack Obama will use the Bible Abraham Lincoln used for his inauguration.

And Obama, in a spirit of goodwill and compromise, will agree that while he still will have the prayers, he will forego the oath to God in carrying out the responsibilities of his office, thus freeing himself to disregard those he doesn’t want or believe in. It’s a win-win for him.

[Snardius]

If you believe there is a God or believe there isn't a God, you still have belief. So why are atheists trying to have the government adopt their belief? I thought that was unconstitutional.

By the way, Newdow is the most articulate mentally deranged person I have ever seen.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

You know, I’m accepting the fact that we will be governed by the godless for the next four years, anyway. They may as well just go whole hog from the git-go. *SHRUG*

So help me, God! (WE’RE gonna need him more than 0bama; he’s already signed on with the opposition.)

Michael Newdow lives in Sacramento, not Elk Grove as the media insists. He’s one of my neighbors and is a total ass who drives his SUV up on the sidewalk to get his mail. Anyone wanting his address pm me and I’ll give it to you.

“Newdow said references to God during inauguration ceremonies violate the Constitution’s ban on the establishment of religion”

A ban on “references to God” in government functions could not be what the framers intended when they disallowed “the establishment of religion”, because the same people who wrote the constitution routinely opened congressional sessions with a prayer. This law suit is just a further attempt by the left to render the U.S. Constitution meaningless by pushing their “living constitution” concept.

[Vermont Lt]

If I remember correctly, the CJOTUS states the oath, which does not include the final sentence. That sentence is usually stated by the person reciting the oath. It is up to the individual, not the Chief Justice.

I dont see a problem.
