thunder wishes it could be the snow...

And the cultural war over the display of the Ten Commandments in state buildings rages on: This time, Congress is stepping in, and attempting to withhold funds to prevent enforcement of the federal appeals court decision declaring the display of the Ten Commandments unconstitutional. What an interesting, and dangerous, turn of events.

Even though I disagree with the decision of the federal appeals court, I think an appeal to the Supreme Court would fare better for all involved. At the very least, it would preserve the judiciary's legitimacy, and Congress' integrity.
