“Let’s just form two countries and get it over with...”

That would be nice. The only problem is that the libs are set on taking us down with them. It wouldn’t be fair, you know, if they ran themselves separately and they failed. No, that wouldn’t do. They need us to blame for their failures. Besides, the whole point of all of this is that they want to force down THEIR morality down OUR throats. That and that their side has all of the looters and we have the producers. They would fall flat on their face so fast, well, that would be funny to see.

Mark Levin wrote in his Liberty and Tyranny, “The American Courts sit today as supreme secular councils, which, like Islam’s supreme religious councils, dictate all manner of approved behavior respecting religion. Neither of the councils tolerates conflicting or diverse viewpoints, insisting that their ruling are the final word for all society.”

Yes, Tyranny.

I don’t see “freedom from religion” in the First Amendment.

I must have missed the buses rounding everyone up to “pray” on the National Day of Prayer.

Oxymoron. Everybody is religious. Some are just more honest about it than others.

“Perhaps she’s wanting a shot at the big court.”

nah, she’s too old, 70. They want someone to be on there a long time. Usually they prefer someone close to 50. This one’s already retired and serves only as a senior judge.

how on earth can she say it is forcing people to accept one religion when infact the constitution clearly states freedom of religion

I’ve f-in had it with this crap now, I don’t even go to church but I do like the constitution and I’m from England who now lives here.

a fed judge went against God down here the other week.
another fed judge does this

we need to hole the white house and congress for 40 years to overturn all of this crap the left have been doing to us.

They have been fighting since the 20’s and we have not and it is high frigging time we got our kids into positions of power and influence like marx said to the left and which they did.
We can have kids and we should be having many and then have them educated and then get them into the courts, the schools, and in power

this is more B/S and no doubt there is more to come

correct and funny how they build footbaths at airports, set aside two classrooms one for boys and one for girls to pray during school hours.

They are muslims after all.
