Fixed.
Yep, first they create this bogus 'separation' clause, then they expand government so much that they squeeze religion out of existence. Anywhere government is, religion is not allowed. Expand government everywhere, and poof, no more religion.
Actually I agree with the list of prohibitted activites. We should not have to pay for student workers to campaign for a party, participate in protests or promote a religion.
Close, you have the original House bill, which is not the same in several details from the conference bill that was worked out after teh Senate finished with it.
Only the worship of Obama will be permitted..
