The Right-wing, extremist idiots of the Tea Party are at it some more.
Sad proof positive:
Move to reaffirm national motto advances in House Associated Press
The House Judiciary Committee has approved a resolution reaffirming "In God We Trust" as the national motto and calling for its display in public schools and other government buildings.
Congressman Randy Forbes, R-Va., who sponsored the measure, notes that the national motto was initially left off of some dollar coins in 2007 and was left out of the new Capitol Visitors Center until he and other lawmakers objected.
The resolution, which now goes to the full House, was opposed by the Secular Coalition of America.
But Forbes says "In God We Trust" is an inspirational phrase that has withstood court challenges.
Forget that this goes in full-face against our own Constitution.
Apparently this chucklehead thinks that he and his political party and the Republicans and everyone in Washington have fixed all our national and international problems. He thinks everything's taken care of so he/we can tinker with this kind of stuff on the side.
Apparently this backwoods bumblebrain hasn't heard of the "Establishment Clause" of our Constitution:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion".
Small-minded idiot.
Demagogue.
