Be careful what you suggest publicly, even in jest. My fear is that he will go after that. I can't see how he could make the case against chaplains being that he isn't military or ever has been to my knowledge, but still...let's not give this nut any ideas!
I can't believe Judge Napelatano praised Newdow on FOX.
Quick, SCOTUS! Slap this jerk down!!!
Well, Madeleine Murray O'Hare died and someone had to pick up the torch.
IF THE ACLU IS AGAINST THIS,......
SOUNDS LIKE CAMOFLAGE TO ME.
LOOKS LIKE CAMO TOO....
