You are making an idiot of yourself, as usual

R.L. — 3/12/2005 11:25:11 PM (archived)

US citizens demanding that the government follow its own constitution are not hateful whackjobs! Mary Anne is correct and YOU are the one coming across as a hateful nutcase.

If, instead of a cross, a giant muslim crecent had been erected alone to honor the muslim veterans that have died in our armed forces- wouldnt you clamor for its removal? It could be argued that the memorial was appropriate since those of muslim faith that have died for this country have never been recognized...

Would you have the same hatred for those pointing out that such a display is unconstitutional, or wouldn't you in fact be one of those 'whackjobs' demanding that the constitution be followed to the letter?

Christians are not 'under attack'... they only feel that way because they believe they deserve special treatment... UNCONSTITUTIONAL treatment.

The protestors peacefully and lawfully stood up against this special treatment... the LAW agreed... DEAL WITH IT... It is wrong for the government to give your fairy tale and more legitimacy than anyone else's!
