The House Natural Resources Committee on Wednesday voted to keep "so help you God" in the oath administered to witnesses testifying before the panel, a day after Republicans denounced an apparent effort to strike the language.
A draft of a new committee rules package obtained exclusively by Fox News this week indicated the committee planned to omit the phrase from the oath "Do you solemnly swear or affirm, under penalty of law, that the testimony that you are about to give is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?"

So they’ll keep the lip service while committing infanticide. I’m sure God will be good with that.

If only all the nation’s enemies were this dang dumb....
It’s just a matter of time.
I agree, the idiots will keep trying.
The Demon Rats will postpone the attempt to remove God from the oath.
Support Free Republic, Folks!
Is there a FR who can find out and name the name and the state and the district who signed on to that bill .
Every article I’ve read (3 or 4) has identified only Chairman Grijalva and the Dems on the Natural Resources Committee as far as the proposed rules changes go.
Even the draft (link below) of the changes listed no names.

It seems the dems are pushing as hard as they can to find the line people won’t cross. They will continue until they are so distasteful that even their own party base won’t stand for it.
This attempt was to see if people wold reject religion and tradition. They pushed abortion all the way to infanticide. They will try it with guns soon. They will keep trying until they find that next thing to rot the country.
