Of course I'm liberal, I believe in liberty.

Two For Two: Courts Rule Correctly Again

I agreed with the courts on the sticker issue and agree again with this:
An atheist who tried to remove "under God" from the Pledge of Allegiance lost a bid Friday to bar the saying of a Christian prayer at President Bush's inauguration.
The atheist is being silly. More than that he hurts his own side doing this kind of thing, much like the church hurts itself pushing creationism1, making all of us liberals look like the PC Nazi's the right loves to claim we are. There is nothing wrong with Bush2 saying a prayer at his inauguration. There is also nothing wrong with swearing on the Bible to uphold the Constitution.

Now, if he decides to swear on the Constitution to uphold the Bible we've got a problem!
