I bet there is neither a liberal lawyer nor a liberal judge with cajones big enough to tell the residents of this Northern Idaho town that they cannot have the Ten Commandments anywhere they want. Better go back and kick some dirt over it. They just haven't spotted it. They would love to go after your town. They think everybody there is a Nazi.

Then I got to thinking. I bet there is neither a liberal lawyer nor a liberal judge with cajones big enough to tell the residents of this Northern Idaho town that they cannot have the Ten Commandments anywhere they want. I like (as well as being concerned about) what Ann Coulter had to say about "blue" states attacking Ten Commandments displays (in red states only, of course.) anncoulter.com < ... It's the blue states that are constantly sending lawyers to the red states to bother everyone. Americans in the red states look at a place like New York City – where, this year, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade featured a gay transvestite as Mrs. Claus – and say, Well, I guess some people like it, but it's not for me. Meanwhile, liberals in New York and Washington are consumed with what people are doing in Alabama and Nebraska. Nadine Strossen and Barry Lynn cannot sleep at night knowing that someone, somewhere, is gazing upon something that could be construed as a religious symbol. ... The alleged legal basis for removing all of these Ten Commandments monuments is the establishment clause of the First Amendment. That clause provides: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion." The vigilant observer will note instantly that none of the monuments cases involves Congress, a law or an establishment of religion.>
