WE CAN READ THE CONSTITUTION AS WELL AS JUDGES CAN :

Americans Overwhelmingly Favor 'Under God' (June 29, 2002, Reuters)

A vast majority of Americans say "under God" should remain part of the Pledge of Allegiance in the wake of a court ruling that said the pledge is unconstitutional, a Newsweek magazine poll said on Saturday.

The survey showed that 87 percent support the phrase and 54 percent think the government should not avoid promoting religion. Additionally, 60 percent think that government leaders making public expressions of faith in God is good for the nation.

When 87% of the American people and two hundred years of tradition say that the Constitution allows us to recognize that our form of government is derived from God, then it does allow it--regardless of what a handful of antidemocratic, antihistorical judges and liberal antireligion activists say.
