There isn't in the constitution, in this Bachmann is absolutely correct if she actually said such a thing. But since most of what's attributed to her is bogus, this would take some confirmation from real news sources, not blogs and agenda sites.Well, you’re doing a very poor job of it, you first need to understand the meaning of the Founding Document before you can ‘defend’ it.In theory we're not even a political party we're the defenders of liberty and we're defending a document…
And this is also ironic, given the fact I spend most of my time defending the Constitution from members of the TPM and the right in genera. As, for example, when Michele Bachmann states that the Constitutional doctrine of separation of church and State is a ‘myth,’ when in McCollum v. Board of Education Dist. 71 (1948), the Court affirmed that very principle using those exact words.
The TPM needs to understand the Constitution in the context of its case law, not some made up fantasy of what you think it is or wish it would be.
A LINK to Michelle Bachmann stating that there is no separation between church and state--as is written in the US Constitution?
Separation of Church and State resulting in the prohibition of religion in all things government is a lie that's been perpetuated since the 1960's by the left. The only mention of a separation of Church and State is in Federalist Papers #41, and it is only 2 sentences long pertaining to preventing a state run religion similar to the Anglican church. The first Amendment prevents such a practice from ever occurring (Although it has been abused to infringe on Christian's free speech now for about 30 years or so).
The default status of the first amendment is NOT atheism. There are copies of the US Constitution on line. So, if this mythical prohibition DOES exist in that document, how about you post the link, hhmmm?
