However, given that this fantastic "wall of seperation" fiat has become a guiding principle of Constitutional law, I think it would be more worthwhile to spread around the word that the original case in which these magic words came up was something of a farce. The judge referenced only the First Amendment and read into it what later became the no entanglement and then the no support "clauses."
The disruptors reveal themselves for the true tyrants they are. They disrupt and attack because they fear.
Petitiononline will remove them all.
Fregards.
... and petition/democracy should not rule in the Court.
Having said that, the judges are appointed by politicians and confirmed by them. Those politicians are elected by the people. If the outcry is loud enough, if it is impassioned enough, if it is sustained enough ... and most importantly, if it is based on truth, virtue and real faith ... it will ultimately have the proper impact.

Is there any way we can parlay this decision into some jail time for the "judges" on the 9th circuit court?
61 years America's sons and daughters proudly fought valiently for our freedom against an enemy that would trample and enslave us to a dark hellish existence. Today a scourge in black robes sitting on a high bench of the court, a mere mortal, told us our Pledge of Allegiance is unconstitutional because of the mention of God which he found offensive.
Today's decision is a betrayal of generations of brave Americans who shed their precious blood and sacrificed their young lives for our freedom. He spat on their courage, valor and the many heartfelt prayers from loved ones on the homefront and their own prayers to God for strength to see them through the mammoth struggle to keep America free from the very tyranny of this judge's vile decision.
We must peacefully stand our ground against such judicial tyranny. We can do so by signing the Pledge.
Let them hear our ROAR!!!
See my post number 125.
Please keep BUMP'ing and forwarding, asking all of those to do the same.

But we can't let it stand.
I am #548 and this is what I wrote
On Seperation of Church and State
It is impossible to build sound Constitutional doctrine
on a mistaken understanding of Constitutional history...
The establishment clause had been expressely freighted with
Jeffersons misleading metaphor for nearly forty years...
There is simply no historical foundation for the proposition
that the framers intended to build a wall of seperation
[between church and state]...
The recent court decisions are in no way based on either
the language or the intent of the framers.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!
We proudly stood together, we waved our flags, we prayed to God, we prayed for the safety of our loved ones, we prayed for the brave firemen and policemen who ran in the burning buildings while others rushed out, we prayed with all of our might, yes we prayed hard and deeply.
Do you remember the braw words of a very brave man on Flight 93 that morning when all of the passengers knew without a doubt what they must do and before they faced their enemy in order to stop further destruction by the terrorists they prayed. Yes they prayed hard and fast to the end.
How dare you decide God is offensive.

We need a tremendous outpouring over this!
