The County displaying the historical Bible is a clear case of Congress making a Law establishing a religion.

It's a display, for pete's sake.
There's all kinds of displays and other things like art, posters, statues, etc. on display in public buildings.
If the building decorating authority can put up those things, then it can put up other things, even religious things. Otherwise, you saw that religious expression is not allowable expression.

These lawyers trying so hard to throw all references to God out of our history should be required to live for a year in a Muslim country under Shari'a law. They would have a new respect and understanding for our 'separation of church and state'.

IMHO they need to ship this gal to downtown bahgdad to explain this to the troops personally, and see what their response is, have her explain why their rights dont matter, and why they deserve to lose their right to the first ammendment

said she is concerned about growing religious fundamentalism as reflected in the monument. If that's her only concern, maybe they should replace the King James Bible with the Jerusalem Bible.

Eventually the Anti-Christian Lawyer's Union is going to go for the big one: Removal of the Bible upon which one swears "..to tell the truth the whole truth and nothing but, so help me G*D"
Is another unstated goal of the ACLU to remove perjury laws? Afterall when one swears that oath, one is swearing not to commit a Clinton, er, perjury.
When will one of these suits include the administration of the oath using the Bible? You know it's coming.

Such IDIOTS! It is not "Unconstitutional." The core principle at stake is NOT the U.S. Supreme Court manufactured concept of SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE. It is FEDERALISM and liberty itself. The STATES have the power to do what they want in this area -- always have (Massachusetts and Georgia had "established" religions at the time the country was founded, and we could, in theory bring in a 51st state with an established religion, say Puerto Rico). Towns can also "establish" religions, like States.
I am sick and tired of Federal judges re-writing history and ignoring 150 years + of understanding and jurisprudence! The Constitution was written to prevent the FEDS from "etablishing" a religion -- and they ARE through this subterfuge -- militant atheism.
Unfortunately, too many state officials, such as the justices in Alabama, are ready to yell "surrender" and run away like Frenchmen at the first sign of a Commmunist Federal judge treading on their turf.
