No problemo here.
The "under God" was a recent insertion and IMHO does not improve it. I'm in that wishy washy middle again that feels it's a BS issue. We're at WAR. That and the economy are the real issues. I do resent the thinly disguised hostility to traditional American values that many courts display even though I'm not religious.
