A Louisiana law requiring public schools to display the Ten Commandments in every classroom can stand, the 17 active judges on the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals have ruled — vacating an earlier preliminary injunction.

    Don’t forget the 11th commandment.

    “Thou shalt consider the supreme law of the land as mere suggestion, for thy personal whim shall outweigh the parchment of the founders.”

      They’re Republicans, so they already have an 11th commandment created by Ronald Reagan in the 1960s, I shit you not. “Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican.”

      It’s one of the reasons Trump so easily took over the GOP, that they had a stupid rule that they followed that emphatically placed party before country, created by a president who seemed to specialize in making sure that the future was as shitty as possible.

        I still say Ronnie Raygun is easily far, far worse than Nixon. Probably the worst until Pedonald came along.

        He had (objectively) the most criminal administration in history, when you count indictments. He set up things for Faux and hate radio. He did a lot for the cult of supply side economics. And he got away with Iran/Contra, as did Bush Senior, which sent the message to Republicans about how they will get away with future crimes.

        Fucking dumb considering trump started out his presidential path as Reform, then switched to Democrat, then to republican, then back to dem, then to republican… so really he’s just a bandwagon poser pedophile piece of shit and I think this ‘rule’ the dumbfuck republicants made should be null and void to this childfucker.

          Well, as long as he projected the racist stuff (and he broadcast that with a bullhorn with all his birther bullshit prior to running) they adopted him as a true-blue conservative and Republican.
