The liberals want to force their secular religion on us which would of course be unconstitutional.

As often as those jokers are overturned, this is a bad omen.

Maybe they’re finally getting tired of being overturned?

The words "under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance are an appeal to patriotism, not religion, and do not violate the separation of church and state,

Was that actually in the decision?

How can "Under God" violate something that does not exist?

Many people who don’t believe in God - do not pledge allegiance anyway and usually don’t see a lot of money.

A ray of common sense from the 9th. Newdow has a “special” reward awating when he dies..........

>> The 9th got one right

A smart move by the 9th in my opinion.
