The Jesus of Suburbia is a Lie?

*
Michael Newdow, doctor, lawyer, father and atheist. So what?

Somewhere in the Bill Of Rights in the Constitution of the United States it says this:

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."

Ok, we get it. Most people not in the US, like the people of North Korea, would love to have this right. I mean, nothing screams freedom more than this right. But, with this right, can you be completely absurd and irrational, aka an idiot. True, Mr. Newdow has the right to bring any case before the nation's courts. But do we have to put up with it?

Michael Newdow, from such 9th Circuit Court cases like this one, went out again and used his power to "petition the government" and sue, Dubya, for putting his hand on the Bible during his inaugaration. Calling this an a religous act, and subsequently, is not concurrent with the Constitution's Law for separating church and state. Being a secular yet God-fearing conservative like myself, I have one question Mr. Newdow: Who give's a rat's ass?
I mean think about it. George Washington did it 1789 and it has been done ever since. We didn't hear a peep from Newdow in all his years of being a lawyer or doctor, until now. I think maybe ten's of people actually support this guy's issues.

Mr. Newdow came to prominence when in that 9th Circuit Court case, he won an injunction to have the Pledge of Allegiance, that all school age children say at assemblies and at the start of school, to remove the words, "under God", from the text. Then it to the Supreme Court and was subsequently overturned. He originally was scrutinized for this court case because it was thought to be a ploy to get back at his ex-wife in a custody dispute over their daugther.
Dad of the year award, eh? Sue the President.

And the President, George W. Bush, is what this issue is really about. Newdow is like every other Leftocrat, a Bush hater. He is spreading hatred of this man any way he can. And as a doctor and lawyer, and some media attention, he believes he has the balls and support to do this. Beliefs based on hate do not supercede those built on faith. (My own quote)

As a consequence of our freedom that our father's fought for, I guess we'll have to put up with it. After all, with all respect to Mr. Newdow and other's like him, it is a free country.
