This Day in Chrisitanism

Last night I opposed yet another bill to erect another monument to slavery because it was used as a bargaining chip to allow for the actual depiction of 'In God We Trust' in the CVC. The Architect of the Capitol and liberal activists opposed every reference to America's Christian heritage, even to the extent of scrubbing 'In God We Trust' from the depiction of the actual Speaker's chair in the U.S. House of Representatives.--U.S. Representative Steven King (R-IA)

This is my favorite:

"The Earth has been here 6,000 years, long before anybody had environmental laws, and somehow it hasn’t been done away with. We need to get the uranium here in Arizona, so this state can get the money from it," - Arizona state Senator Sylvia Allen (R).

Both of these people are ELECTED officials. What is scarier--these two clowns, or the people who elected them?

All Things In Moderation

A sane Republican:

Notice to Republicans: Arlen Specter changing parties is good for the Democrats and President Obama and bad for us. If you think otherwise, put down the Ann Coulter book and go get some fresh air. --ED ROGERS, White House staffer to Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush

Ed I suggest you stay away from the commentariat at Red State and MM. You might get an Ann Coulter book thrown at you.

Door Opens for Reid and Senate Democrats

Burris can now be seated. This from Politico:

Following a decision by the Illinois Supreme Court, Jesse White, the Illinois secretary of state, has certified Roland Burris' appointment to the Senate, removing a major roadblock against Burris' ascension to the body.

According to his office, White has signed a certificate saying that Burris' appointment document is "true and accurate."

Now let's get to the country's business.
