I'm adding this little RichClem Gem to your post Misty. It is Proof that Rich hasn't ever even read the first Amendment. WTF does "respecting religion" mean? Congress can't pass a non-binding resolution expressing "respect" for a religion?The Constitution only forbids Congress from "establishing" a religion, but since when has the clear wording of the Constitution gotten in the way of your ignorance and stupidity?Here is the first Amendment for those who haven't read it.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.What utter hooey.I forgot the word "respect." You forgot the word "establishment" of religion, which is far more central to that part of the amendment than the word I left out. Does that mean you've never read the first amendment? Or are you just full of crap?And speaking of not understanding the 1st Amendment, what do the following words mean in respect to SCOTUS's Citizen's United decision?Congress shall make no law....abridging the freedom of speechDon't strain yourself.
