Some Things Just Make Me Wonder

It is OK for a Muslim CONgress Critter to swear the Oath of Service on "Krapran" but it isn't OK to have God referenced anywhere. Has Allah replaced God in this country? Has the cancer of the cowardly political correctness created the air of apathy towards God?

As Nancy Pelosi "crosses herself" at the end of an Armenian prayer in CONgress, she exhumes her hypocrisy by agreeing with and sanctioning the censoring of the term "God" on a flag.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi today defended the Architect of the Capitol's refusal to permit use of the word "God" on official certificates enclosed with flags flown over the U.S. Capitol.

[...]

What is that all about? This is 100% unacceptable. Since when does the minority in numbers dictate to the majority of numbers what can be done and what cannot be done? Catering and pandering is for fools and cowards.

Religious words such as God, Lord banned by Architect of the U.S. Capitol Contact your congressman and senators today! According to U.S. Representative Marilyn Musgrave, our nation's legislators are now prohibited from using references to God in certificates of authenticity accompanying flags flown over the Capitol and bought by constituents. Such references include: "under God" in the pledge, "God bless you," or "in the year of our Lord, 2007." Never before has this official prohibition been leveled. Architect of the Capitol Steven Ayers said he has removed the words because reference to God and the Lord may offend some Americans. He now prohibits them from being placed on official documents such as flag certificates. Musgrave was astonished when she flew a flag over the U.S. Capitol building as a tribute to a senior citizen, and the accompanying certificate she received was edited with all religious references removed. The congresswoman was more astounded when, upon further investigation, she discovered the certificate was censored by order of The Architect of the Capitol, an unelected very low-level official who manages the flag office. Responding to a request for a flag flown over the United States Capitol in honor of a World War II veteran's 81st birthday, the congresswoman ordered the flag and a certificate to state: "This flag was flown for Mr. John Doe on the occasion of his 81st birthday, the eleventh day of July, in the year of our Lord, 2007. Thank you, Grandpa, for showing me what it is to be a true patriot -- to love God, family, and country. We love you!" When the flag and certificate came back from the flag office, each reference to the Lord and God were removed. A group of lawmakers confronted architect Stephen Ayers seeking to find where he had the authority to restrict their freedom of speech and religious expression. Ayers refused to give the lawmakers a clear justification of his authority to delete the religious references. For more information: Capitol flag policy assailed (Washington Times).
