You must be talking to somebody else, because I am NOT talking about the Constitution.

My reference to O'Donnell was in regard to her failing to recognize the wording of the 1st A. That WAS dumb. And she is naive if she believes the public schools will teach the Judeo-Christian version of Creation that she would obviously prefer.

“The First Amendment does?” O’Donnell asked. “Let me just clarify: You’re telling me that the separation of church and state is found in the First Amendment?”

“Government shall make no establishment of religion,” Coons responded, reciting from memory the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. (Coons was off slightly: The first amendment actually reads “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.”)

“That’s in the First Amendment...?” O’Donnell responded.
