Constitution? What's that??

What really bugs me about politics nowadays is not the massive partisanship that seems to fog up the truth, or the nonsense and over-exagerated statements high ranking officials make, but the total disregard for the fundemental (and i mean that quite literally) law that established this nation years ago. Before the country's 200 year anniversary, over and over again, our nation's leaders seem to disregard the constitution (ESPECIALLY its ammendments). Out of the hundreds of examples i can give I'd like to focus on one specific violation that is made repeatedly: Our trampling on the seperation of church and state- particularly the establishment clause. And since this violation is mostly made by Republicans nowadays, I'd like to set the record straight; I'm not anti-republican (well I am but I hate democrats too). I will certainly write about Obama's support of a bill that could destroy our freedom of speech rights, but that will be done later. For now, let's focus on a party being infiltrated by evangelical christians who seem bent on creating a christian nation that never existed. It's time to cut the bullshit, and realize that the base of this party is as socially conservative as can be, and an overwhelming majority of self proclaimed Republicans are right there behind them. They promote an agenda which includes the banning of abortion, prohabition of any marriage rights towards gays, and creationist teachings. Their previous leader entrenched religion into the state to a point where he included biblical passages into his D.O.D briefings (there's Dubya for ya). To make matters worse, they despise the idea of stem cell research. If it were a secular, underlying thought that would be one thing; but to justify it through one's own religion is clearly in violation of this nation's consitution. I love how they try and justify their theories through the fact of saying that our forefathers were religious men. No they weren't. George Washington mentioned G-d only twice in the dozens of his speeches. Jefferson warned many of the catastrophes caused by a religous state, and often promoted an idea of a "wall of seperation" between state and church matters. Even if these man were devoutly christian, and not deists who used the bible as a tool to promote certain agendas, this only proves my point further. Even while being religous themselves, they understood that a judeo-christian state would impose beliefs upon those who didn't agree with them. They were pretty smart men, so how about, in honor of our troops fighting for their beliefs in the Middle East, you quit making things up. Can you try that for me, Ms. Palin? What about you Mr. Huckabee? Can you admit that your opposition to abortion is in fact an illegal one? And by the way Rush Limbaugh, your religious forefathers never believed that this nation was one founded upon christian principles.
