Coinage is monetized through the U.S. government, so they might have some kind of hat to hang their suit on, but I'm not sure that they went that far. Details to date have been sketchy.
One solution: get out your pens.
"In God We Trust"; "Liberty"; "E Pluribus Unum". The three basic principles of American society.
Soon the constitution will be ruled as unconstitutional.
I love quotes from Washington. If every president had made an effort to live-up to the standard he set, we would have a very different nation today. One, I believe, we would be much more proud of.
later read/pingout.
(Denny Crane: "I Don't Want To Socialize With A Pinko Liberal Democrat Commie.Say What You Like About Republicans. We Stick To Our Convictions. Even When We Know We're Dead Wrong.")
No use getting in a frenzy. This idiocy will go nowhere.
BTW, if God's been taken completely out of the schools, how did my daughter carry a Bible, pray quietly, go to Rally at the Flagpole days, do group prayers before cross country and track meets, and participate in Young Life -- all at her public school?
Do you subscribe to the "Broken Windows" concept? Standing idly by while they remove "In God We Trust" from our currency is another broken window toward a society without any references God. It is another precedent that folks like Newdow and his ilk can say, "Surely we can't have a reference to God in , why--we don't even have it on our money!"
After all, aren't churches constructed on, or next to public thoroughfares? Shouldn't pedestrians be free to walk from point A to point B without having to suffer the indignity of passing a house of worship?
I think conservatives are secretyly paying this guy...
It doesn't do crypto-commie-pinko-socialist-fellow..., uh... that is, liberals any good to bring up these issues, and it rouses us somethin' fierce.
"Something painful ought to happen to this guy."
Yup, let's have all the "good Christians" here on Free Republic pray for that.
In God We Trust, Everyone Else Pays Cash
I'm kind of optimistic, that this kind of rediculous overreaching on the part of the atheists, will help codify some protections for acknowledgement of God in the public domain.
Why not? It's already Goldless!
Where is today's Joseph McCarthy? Wonder how many leaders we would have left.

Good question. Washington pols of today, don't seem to care that our country is overrun with anti-American COMMUNISTS trying to subvert everything that represents American culture. They are too busy worrying about their utopian international agendas, and their own empowerment.
I searched this ... Newdow is the founder of the 'church' and is apparently the only member. There is no picture of the church alter, but I imagine it is covered with beakers, Bunsen burners, bottles of hydrochloric acid, and vials of powdered ferrous oxide. There are probably a few dollars in the collection plate with 'In God We Trust' crossed out and 'We Don't Trust In Sh*t' written in. The hymn book racks on the back of the pews contain microscopes with an assortment of glass slides of various bacteria. Any other suggestions?
Mr. Newdow is more than welcome to send all that offensive currency to me. :)
- George Washington
Wonderful quote - I think I'll send Nedow a post-card...
If this is true, Newdow has turned into a traveling freakshow.

Perhaps we can get him "set-up" with the divorced Cindy Sheehan.
Isn't there something we could cobble together to sue Newdow with? Like harassment or something?
