KANGAROO COURT

Reporter Editor:

Americans should be outraged by the ruling that the Pledge of Allegiance is 
unconstitutional, an irresponsible decision.

The court found the reciting of the pledge by teachers and students amounts 
to a government endorsement of religion, going so far as to compare the 
phrase "under God" with "under Zeus."

Just last month this radical court said certain people could smoke 
marijuana on federal lands if it is part of their religion.

We need to end the judicial crisis and place the men and women of 
distinction who President Bush has nominated on the bench. While the 
president continues to nominate responsible jurists, Democrats in the 
Senate continue to play partisan games.
