7. Well, I guess it had to come to this point. I was pretty confident

the court would uphold Separation of Church and State, but if * wins, I'm sure they'll try to postpone the hearing until they can plant another RWer on the Court.

2. I am not sure I want them to do it now

Being an atheist I have a view on whether posting religious symbols on government properties is good idea. However, I am concerned this may motivate the fundies to vote.

5. Sounds like they've just granted certiorari

Any decision is months (at the soonest) away.

8. ah the stench of desperation!

What a wonderful smell in the morning! This sounds like more base shoring and energizing to me.

And it needs to be dealt with NOW.

9. Yep. Our Judicial Arm of the Coup is as politicized and corrupt

as any Third-World Court.

This is a Bushevik Campiagn commercial.
