11:29 PDT (AP) -- The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals overturned a 1954 act of Congress inserting the phrase "under God" after the words "one nation" in the pledge. The court said the phrase violates the so-called Establishment Clause in the Constitution that requires a separation of church and state. "A profession that we are a nation `under God' is identical, for Establishment Clause purposes, to a profession that we are a nation `under Jesus,' a nation `under Vishnu,' a nation `under Zeus,' or a nation `under no god,' because none of these professions can be neutral with respect to religion," Judge Alfred T. Goodwin wrote for the three-judge panel.

Dear Gao: I didnt say jail, I said Prosecution. I would however like to confiscate their assets until its settled. If they are found innocent (which I doubt) they would not be jailed. If they are found guilty I would see they served HARD TIME in a PRISON and not some damn Country Club which is what usually happens. I think its time some of them like Kenneth Lay met BILLIE BOB on a PERSONAL basis. JDN
