In God We Fail

A California community college student is given an “F” for using the “G” word 41 times in an essay:
[Bethany] Hauf's teacher approved her term paper topic — Religion and its Place within the Government — on one condition: Don't use the word God. Instead of complying with Victor Vally Community College adjunct instructor Michael Shefchik's condition. Hauf wrote a 10-page report for her English 101 class entitled "In God We Trust.""

He said it would offend others in class," Hauf, a 34-year-old mother of four, said. "I didn't realize God was taboo."

"I don't loose my First Amendment rights when I walk into that college," Hauf said. She is demanding an apology from the teacher and that the paper be re-graded.

Mrs. Hauf has enlisted the help of the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), a conservative Christian legal foundation. A letter from the ACLJ to school officials also indicates that Mrs. Hauf posted her paper on an on-line blackboard for “review and comment from other students”. Shefick had it removed the next day.

So let me get this straight: A political ideology that thinks the public should fund an art project that involves urinating on a crucifix, thinks people might get offended by the use of the word “God”? These are the same people who throw feces on the Virgin Mary, but call handling the Koran without gloves torture.

You want to know what torture is? Listening to liberal yay-hoos tear this Country down everyday for their own political gain. Stuff like this:

“When the vice president absurdly claims the insurgency is 'in its last throes,' he insults the common sense and intelligence of the American people, and diminishes our stature with France, er the world, I mean,” Said C student, John Kerry.

"We just don't have a clue," Rep. John Murtha, a Pennsylvania Democrat obviously speaking about his own party.

“YEEEEEAAAARRRRGGGGHHH!”, Howard “Screaming La Vida Loca” Dean.

You know what? Karl Rove was wrong. Liberals are not preparing indictments and offering therapy. They are taking up arms and like the Vichy French are marching along with the enemy.
