Which came first, crazy cases brought to court...or the judges who rule in favor of crazy? As we talked on the show about the 9th Circuit Court's decision to allow doctors to perform abortions on minors under 17, including, oh let's say, 10 yr olds, plans for another outrageous court battle were in the making...
The lastest offensive by Michael Newdow, the atheist who has fought to get "under God' out of the Pledge of Allegiance, has now targeted "In God We Trust" on U.S. money.
"I am about to file to get 'In God We Trust' off the front of our currency...I plan to do that this week," he told the Oklahoman before speaking at the ACLU Oklahoma Foundation Bill of Rights Celebration.
Then he told KWTV in Oklahoma City, "The key principle is that we're supposed to treat everybody equally especially in terms of religious belief...Clearly it's not treating atheists equal with people who believe in God when you say 'In God We Trust' or we are a 'nation under God.'"
"People say, 'Are you an atheist activist?' And I'm not...I couldn't care less what anyone believes. I just care that our government treats everybody equally."
Hogwash!
Hear the show (See 11/16/05)
