Was there some sort of nationwide epidemic of people no longer trusting in God that I somehow missed? Seems to me that here in America, we've been celebrating the Birth of His Son for about two-and-a-half weeks now. Yet for some reason -- maybe the massive unemployment crisis was totally solved while everyone was paying attention to Herman Cain's sexy hand gestures -- Rep. Randy Forbes (R-Va.) took time out of Congress' busy schedule to float a resolution reaffirming "In God We Trust" as our national motto. As The Hill's Pete Kasperowicz reports:
"Unfortunately, there are a number of public officials who forget what the national motto is, whether intentionally or unintentionally," Rep. Randy Forbes (R-Va.) said in late Tuesday afternoon debate in the House. "There are those who become confused as to whether or not it can still be placed on our buildings, whether it can be placed in our school classrooms.
"Almost a year ago, the president in making a speech across the world said that our national motto was 'E pluribus unum,'" Forbes added. "When the [U.S. Capitol] Visitor Center was opened ... they did not have the national motto in there. In fact, they inscribed in the stones that our national motto was 'E pluribus unum.'"
