Dennis Prager is disappointing me. You can site Keith Ellison's past with the Nation of Islam and his possible extremist sympathies, as Glenn Beck has. However, Prager is totally wrong in his assessment that because we are a Judeo-Christian country all officials shall have to swear on a Bible. It says explicitly in the Constitution that we shall make no law respecting one institution of religion. And that is
exactly what Prager is calling for here.UPDATE:
In the link I provided, there's a comment that says it all:
Make a new oath based strictly on the U.S. constitution and do away with the whole problem once and forever more.
Sounds good to me!
