...well now that the left has found their god (Obama) it shouldn’t be an issue...
We didn’t have the motto until the 1950s, IIRC, and the nation survived the long, godless period prior to then.
As to whether it should be removed, let’s let the legislature take that one up, rather than having some secular humanist get it struck down in court.
NO
Should the motto “In God We Trust” be removed from U.S. currency? * 8706760 responses
Yes. It’s a violation of the principle of separation of church and state.
18%
No. The motto has historical and patriotic significance and does nothing to establish a state religion.
82%

Wow, I cannot believe 82 percent say no and this is MSNBC!
I voted no but I didn’t like the explanations. I’m a one nation under God...and in God we trust person.
Freeoed.

I wouldn't trust the guy to pickup dog doo in my back yard.
If we remove God, we then return all of it to Washington - willingly.
82% are voting the right way on MSNBC.
I was surprised at the numbers myself considering the way the nation seems to be going. Maybe this can be an indication that maybe it hasn’t gone as far south as the other side would like us to believe.
“For conquor we must,
For our cause it is just,
And this be our motto,
In God is our trust”
Will they replace it with “In Obama We Trust” if they do remove it?
No thanks. I am not giving MSNBC the hits for their lame polls.
Also interesting was the gay marriage issue that went down in every state. They say people are more right than left, all we can do is pray that things will turn around as people see what they have elected, Clintons part 2!
Exactly. Lets bankrupt the entire country so we can get rid of “In God we trust”. We can’t afford Liberal leadership. Their feel-good social policies and moral relativism is expensive.

BUMP!
