>> Maybe Seattle-ites are way left of the nation. Maybe? That was a joke, right?

Ted, > There is no one making a serious attempt to try and change the pledge so there is nothing contradictory with that poll. At the time there was. A federal appeals court (the most liberal in the nation, by the way) ruled it unconstitutional thanks to one atheist activist, Michael Newdow. I said serious.....not some whimisical lawsuit. The issue has long since passed, but I brought it up as an example. There was one flaw in my example, though. Your congressman, Jim McDermott, is only supposed to represent his constituents, not the nation as a whole. Maybe Seattle-ites are way left of the nation. And maybe you are just a stupid smuck. McDermott is not Seattle, and even if he were, we must be doing something right because the living is good here.
