New Senate immediately proves that dumb is cool.
[link|http://www.cnn.com/2002/ALLPOLITICS/06/26/senate.resolution.pledge/index.html|CNN]

In a statement, Hastert said:

"Obviously, the liberal court in San Francisco has gotten this one wrong. Of course, we are one nation, under God. The Pledge of Allegiance is a patriotic salute that brings people of all faiths together to share in the American spirit.
That is true. We are many faiths, under God.

Just smile and nod.

Of course, we are one nation, under Allah.


What the fuck. I hereby propose that we keep the divine reference in the PoA. And each religion will hereby be awarded one day upon which the children and Congress will recite the PoA with the appropriate substitution made.

I can't wait to see the Senate pledge "...under Allah..."

New uhhh...
...while I agree that Hastert can be (and has recently been...repeatedly) dumber than a box of rocks, he is not a Senator...yet...

(Praise Allah! for small favors...)
