Cool I Swear On the Koran?

http://www.csmonitor.com/2005/0720/p02s02-usju.html

Is America still a Homosex-Crystalmeth (e.g. Haggard) nation or what?

To be really accurate they should all have to swear in on a pile of Lobbyists' cash donations. But I hate to be a stickler for details.

I love it!

Air out and display the idiocy!

This thinking won't stand up well to scrutiny!

Don't hide the people who hold these postures!

It's onlya matter of time until they themselves can't look this in the eye!

Default No clue

Anyone who brings this up has absolutely no clue about the swearing-in process or their own government at all.

Patriotism...bah!

Why -- O why -- do they get so much airtime?? Is it the Fox network??

There is no Holy Book required at the swearing-in ceremony. You could swear in using the Fanny Farmer Cookbook...or Uncle Remus...or some Beatrix Potter book.

Ooooooo, but, God forbid you use a Holy Book like the Koran. Lordy, Lordy. Lordy! All HECK could break loose! Hang on, people...!

No offense to our Bible belting, Betty Crocker carrying and Islamic Koran swearing fellow citizens: what we should all be swearing on, if we are to swear on anything, is a copy of the Constitution.

Default What Constitution?

Well, at least the Constitution would be getting some use if they did that. Otherwise, we aren't using it nowadays.
