That should have been a HUGE clue, to get out of public schools NOW!

You would think.

They are anti-Christian, anti-Catholic.

don't worry they are working up to anti-Jewish. That is to overt to spout just yet. But there will be an issue they can jump onto sometime.

they've been in our midst for a l-o-n-g time.

it began with the enfatuation of the american rich with european fashions. one of these fashions was karl marx and communism.

eleanor roosevelt attended communist party meetings.

some members of fdr's party were communists. harold ickes, for example, leaned that way. his son served in the clinton administration.

they infiltrated the united states for the purpose of taking over.

david horowitz' "radical son" describes his upbringing in an immigrant, communist home.

anny coulter's "treason" describes how the left has successfully distorted "mccarthyism" in the united states.

Prison for praying in School? I'd like to call them on that and see where this goes. The ACLU has been a pain for too long.

The ACLU is ... pro terrorist, pro marxist, pro deviants, pro illegal drugs, pro anarchy.

The ACLU is like the Shadows (sf ref to Babylon5)

The Tangipahoa school board and the ACLU of Louisiana entered into an agreement

Why in the world would anyone do that?

At least the Shadows stayed in the background. The AACLU (Anti-American Civil Liberties Union) is now 'in your face'.

Now, members of the AACLU do bear a striking resemblance to the Shadows.

Guantanamo would be acceptable for Christians, not terrorists.

Wait a minute. What am I doing? You're a troll and will never come back, right?

"I was thinking the same thing. Let them keep doing what they do until "the people" get fed up. That is when action happens. IMO"

I think your right. How about a kinda "Boston Tea Party" get several hundred parents to go to the school and hold a "Pray IN" demonstration and dare the ACLU to stop it. Do it all across the country.

How can they prosecute people to praying to their Christian God and then scream because of a Koran in Gitmo?

And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

You know I think Nancy Pelosi would call it an abuse of power for the Republicans to elect the Speaker of the House. She's a wack job and I would love to see her blink. Just once! Her face might shatter. Gotta love a later in her 50's or 60's trying to look like she's in her 20's only to seem like she's in a Frankenstein movie

The ACLU engaging in religious hate speech? Who'd have guessed it?

Do they get to cut the heads off of other students they don't agree with, too?

Good point. Here in the blogosphere we hear about a lot of this, but that is becasue we are "plugged in." The general populace is not and we know the MSM is not going to tell them. When enough people are fed up they will react. That is why I like Howard Dean, the ACLU and their ilk spouting off. Short term pains for us, long term gain when the People rise up.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances. The Anti-american Communist Lawyers Union are a bunch of seditious traitors and should be dealt with extreme prejudice.

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof …” That’s all the First Amendment says. Nowhere can you find the “wall of separation” between church and state. Yet, in the name of freedom and liberty, groups like the ACLU would like to prohibit the free exercise of religion beyond a person’s private thoughts. “That’s okay, you can be a Christian, just don’t say it out loud.”

I found the "wall of separation". Article 52 Section 2 of this Constitution.
