I'll be there are even some who insist on not removing Jefferson's "endowed
by their Creator" language from the Declaration of Independence. How
horrible. Those founding fathers were clearly a bunch of right-wing
religious zealots who can't be tolerated in this day and age.


I grew up saying "under God," and I don't find it offensive. It's a
tempest in a teapot. The real issue is that the Supremes are aging and
if Bush gets a chance he'll appoint more people like Thomas or Scalia
(who isn't all bad, since he claims group sex is good for the
country).
