Why is Congress spending time on this sort of nonsense? It’s part of our descent to banana republic status, I suppose.
If you weren’t a guy, I would kiss you for that post.

Patton ordered the Third Army chaplain, Colonel James O’Neill, to compose a suitable prayer: “Almighty and most merciful Father, we humbly beseech Thee, of Thy great goodness, to restrain these immoderate rains with which we have had to contend. Grant us fair weather for Battle. Graciously hearken to us as soldiers who call upon Thee that, armed with Thy power, we may advance from victory to victory and crush the oppression and wickedness of our enemies, and establish Thy justice among men and nations. Amen.”

I am kind of partial to unapologetically martial prayer.
Paul is a kook but he’s right it’s a waste of time for Congress to be voting on mottos.
CUT SPENDING should be the motto. ;p
thanks !
