It's a shame this column had to be chopped up for excerpting. It is a gem of a liberal meltdown.

Which judges are out to rob Christians of their heritage? "
uh, maybe that Judge who told another Judge to demolish his ten commandments display ???
Or the Judge who decided "under God" has to be taken out of the pledge?
Or the Judge who forbade a valedictorian to quote scripture at her graduation ceremony?
... those judges, maybe ???

Proving the point that the religious are considered somehow less than acceptable members of American society.
Evidently they would prefer us to be seen and not heard.

Nixonites and George Wallace supporters were sporting flags in their lapels and stickers on their cars. By George Wallace supporters I guess she means Sen. Byrd....

And one day, soon, God is going to give them what they want.

Only liberal churches are allowed to be involved in politics according to liberals like Colbert King.

Ann Coulter is correct once again. When liberals stop being able to call you stupid, they call you crazy or a racist.
Here the obvious ploy is to lump anti-communists, aka the Nixonites, in with racists, the George Wallace crowd. Also note the specific selection of the year 1969. I guess prior to 1969 that the author would have been dealing with Democrats running a half assed war and racist Democrats. Now that wouldn't work, would it.

Which judges are out to rob Christians of their heritage? Oh gee. Let's see..... How about:
- The 'judges' of the 9th Circus (that was an easy one)
- Or the Federal 'judge' in San Diego who ruled that the Boy Scouts were a religious organization and then banned them from that Park they had previously maintained for decades at NO cost to the locals.
- Or the Massachusetts 'judges' who ruled in favor of the homo agenda contrary to the will of the people
- And all the 'judges' who've ruled a Crucifix can't be worn in school.
- The 'judges' who've ruled that religious organizations MUST HIRE gays, even it it violates their religious beliefs.
And in the latest example of Judicial Activism, a Cook County IL 'judge' ruled yesterday that IL Pharmacists MUST fill prescriptions birth control pills and especially for the morning after pill, EVEN if it violates their religion - or they'll face fines and imprisonment.

There is no way to Hijack something that is free to all.We Christians just accept it. When we accept it we then know right from wrong. That is why we are called the right...Right?
We then stand for what we feel the Bible teaches..Right?

The issue is that the Democrats want to impose a religious litmus test on the judiciary. They are trying to spin this as Republicans injecting religion into politics -- actually it is the Democrats who have done so by advocating religious discrimination.

It sounds a lot like a kid saying, don't touch that, I might want to use it.

>>>It means challenging them when they say of Americans who support a woman's right to choose; the right of two adults to enter into a loving, committed, state-sanctioned, monogamous relationship; the right to pursue science in support of life; the right of the aggrieved to launch aggressive assaults against racism, sexism and homophobia, that they are not legitimate members of the flock. <<<
oh wow. this is quite the collum. when the sheep and goats are seperated by The One and Only Judge... well, we'll see who are and are not "legitimate members of the flock" won't we.
this communist anti-God, anti-American attack on the Minutemen and now this.... i wish our elected leaders would be more vocal against this sort of lying rhetoric. it's like they are setting things in place for when they get Christian/Patriot haters into the seats of power.... planting the seeds of evil in the minds of the gullable.
Prayers for our Nation.

You forgot about the judges who ruled against prayer in school. the 10 commandments in the judge's office, prayer at commencement, prayer at football games. etc. etc.
All these rulings are against the "free exercise" clause in the first amendment and should be overturned and not enforced.

"... they would prefer us to be seen and not heard."
Except when they're in trouble and a family member has been seriously injured or is seriously ill - who do they call - the people of FAITH - because they want us to PRAY.
I've always found this to be most amazing.
