Thank you Cynthia Tucker. This is the United States of America, not Jesusland, and I for one, love my country. When the "religious right" (read people who are still pissed off slavery is dead) pokes it's ugly head from the ground, and starts to make policy, it deserves it's head smacked down. Ideally with the Hammer of God in his whack-a-mole gaem.
