acroyear | speaking of roll calls

both Davis and Wolf (Northern VA's representatives) voted yes to the bill that would "protect" the government from establishment clause lawsuits, thus allowing the theocracy of the mad to proceed apace without anyone able to afford the court challenge.

Here's the catch-22 about the madness here: you can't sue to call this potential law unconstitutional until it affects you, and you can't have it affect you until you sue for an establishment clause breach and win, and then you have to be able to pony up the money to your legal firm (since pro bono won't exist because the good-guy lawyers do that on the grounds of winning some of it back and the law would prevent them from ever collecting). and THEN you can sue again (if you have any money left) to have the law itself declared unconstitutional. In short - nobody can afford to do that.

it is one hell of a potential legal loophole, all to allow this nation to promote one particularly insidious brand of christianity at the expense of every other religion or reasonable person out there.

Yes, I'm pissed.

No individual clause of the constution should be any more or less important than any other, and the contempt for the law document that gives them their power just completely disgusts me.

Your bill of rights has just taken one hell of a hit from these madmen. Truly, it is time to kick them out and replace them with people who respect the real source of their power - the consent of the people, not the God on high.
