Johnnie Cochran’s out, Jerry Falwell’s on his way, and the Pope has been half-dead for years.<\/p>\n

In other news, Mississippi continues its regression back to the Middle Ages. Did you know that in 2001 they passed a law requiring the phrase “In God we trust” to be posted in every<\/i> public school classroom? Well, now the Senate has deemed it completely OK for Christian texts and symbols to adorn taxpayer-funded buildings. Hoo, and I thought Mississippi had some sort of budget\/Medicaid\/illiteracy problems to deal with. Well, as long as the kids can read “In God we trust,” they’re good for life. <\/p>\n

I really am astonished at how many conservatives push for government and public spaces to be associated with Christianity, as much as they squawk about government tainting everything it touches. I mean, why would anyone want to allow the government to co-opt their very private, very sacred, and most of all very diverse religious beliefs for any sort of political purpose? Makes. No. Sense. <\/p>\n

Everything’s okay, though, because somewhere out there right now, someone is putting together a costume for Lebowski Fest<\/a>. God bless America. I mean Hollywood. Hollywood bless America.<\/p>\n
