Now, Rev. Wright might be appropriate for the swearing in. |

Secular? With the Obamessiah? You have got to be kidding. |

No kidding at all. Secular, for Obama and every President there after. You know that that is the right path for this country. Don't let the fact that Obama will be the President this time clouds your judgment. |

In God We Trust. It got us to #1 on the top country list. That secular stuff doesn't seem to work so good. Even BHO understands that. |

I personally think God doesn't have anything to do with it, and that God couldn't care less, one way or the other. The minute God began caring one way or the other, God would become the Effect of something, rather than First Cause, and immediately cease to be God. |
