Newdow's Newest Notion
Fresh from his triumph in the United States Supreme Court, which held a few years ago that he did not have standing to complain (falsely?) about his daughter's inability to say 'under God' in the Pledge of Allegiance, Michael Newdow, a doctor and lawyer with apparently not enough to do, had his latest helpful lawsuit, to take 'In God We Trust' off our coins, dismissed by federal judge Frank Damrell of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California, who ruled that Newdow was wasting everyone's time with this silly stuff (actually that the phrase on the coinage was sufficiently secular and historical not to violate the First Amendments prohibition of the establishment of a state religion).
On to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeal, vowed Newdow.
