Today we heard the court tell the ACLU to"Stuff It!""ACLU Christmas"
Looks like somebody finally took the time to read our founders writings on what was their intent, because they were very clear.
An even better decision would be for the courts to demand that the ACLU reimburse the taxpayers for all the money they burned up in this lawsuit. A rare victory over the religion police!

Odd...the Dover decision throwing out ID was all over the news yesterday, but this is the first I've heard of this unanimous decision debunking the non-existant d"separation of church and state." I guess CNN doesn't deem this to be noteworthy since it actually follows the Constitution. The two decisions certainly seem to contradict one another.
Thank the Lord, our whole judicial system has not yet lost it.
A mass mailing to teachers to stop using this phrase as part of the United States Constitution would be helpful or just a letter to the NEA, AFT, and AAUP might suffice.
Thank the Lord, but this is going to stir things up.
Of course I suspect it won't get any press.
Yahoo listed the news of the PA judge ruling ID in public schools is illegal because the proponents are religiously motivated. Yahoo kept the article listed for more than a day. I have not seen any mention of this case on Yahoo though.
Good call by the judge about the "separation of church and state" issue. My blood boils every time I hear that phrase because I know that most Americans ASSUME it is in the Constitution. It is mentioned in the Federalist Papers and some personal writings of the founding fathers, but NOT the Constitution.
Just . . . WOW!
What a great day for a great decision.
Merry Christmas
6th Circuit Judge Richard Suhrheinrich wrote in the unanimous decision: "The ACLU makes repeated reference to the 'separation of church and state.' This extra-constitutional construct has grown tiresome. The First Amendment does not demand a wall of separation between church and state. Our nation's history is replete with governmental acknowledgment and in some cases, accommodation of religion."
"...and tiresome." True that!
Would you pings your lists? This thread is too good to miss.
Would you ping your Steyn list? Steyn may hit on this in a future piece. Thanks
"6th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals Tuesday issued an historic decision declaring that "the First Amendment does not demand a wall of separation between church and state."
Hallelujah!!! Finally, a demonstration from the courts that shows both brains and the chutzpah to call the ACLU liars!
Praise the Lord and pass the frosted liberals!
Has this got legs??
OMG! FINALLY, someone with a brain has interpreted the Constitution the way it was meant to be, now, is there something in there forbidding forming a group known as the ACLU?
by far the best bews I have read today. God bless the 6th Circuit Court.. any chance the 9th Circus will try and up them?
