Ninth graders obviously more well-spoken that Dumbya

Drop 'Christian' from Constitution?

MONTPELIER -- Vermont's state Constitution says that "every sect or denomination of Christians ought to observe Sabbath or Lord's Day, and keep up some sort of religious worship, which, to them, will seem most agreeable to the revealed will of God."

Ninth-graders Sylvie Daley and Dosia Sanford from the Twinfield Union School in Marshfield went before the Senate Government Operations Committee on Friday and said it's time to amend the founding document to remove the reference to a specific religion.

The constitutional provision is "anachronistic," Daley said. "We just think it's time to bring it up to date so that it's fair to all religions.

"We're not anti-Christian," she added. "We don't want to get God out of the Constitution. We just want to remove all the references to 'Christian' because Vermont is so much more diverse now."

These are the kinds of kids the Repugs fear most...they're intelligent and well-spoken. Obviously more so than the Dim Son.

I want to hear a member of the White House press corps ask if Bush if he even knows what "anachronistic" means. Of course, he'd probably get lucky and in a fit of anger just yell out, "You're out of order!", at which point the jaws would drop as the press corps mistakenly believed that Bush was actually answering the question rather than just throwing a childish tantrum.
