The Hill's Blog Briefing Room � DeMint: Capitol Visitor Center Fails to Honor Faith

The Hill's Blog Briefing Room � DeMint: Capitol Visitor Center Fails to Honor Faith: "“The fundamental principles of the freedom we enjoy in this country stem from our Founding Fathers’ beliefs in a higher power, beliefs put forth in the Declaration of Independence and manifest throughout our Constitution,” said Senator DeMint. “If we cease to acknowledge this fact, we may cease to enjoy some of the freedoms we take for granted. We must not censor historical references to God for the sake of political correctness. And we must truthfully represent the limited form of government the Constitution lays out so that our ‘government of the people, by the people, and for the people, shall not perish from the earth.’ So help us God.”"

Read DeMint's full statement. Bravo Senator!

Sen. DeMint is fast becoming my favorite Senator.

Did you hear the insulting comments made by Sen. Harry Reid?

While the congress is hauling the Automakers up on Capital Hill to interogate them on their 'poor business' practices and their plans to use the bailout money wisely, this visitor center is a glaring irony.

Completed 3 years late and 500% over budget. Enron was a model of fiscal responsibility compared to our congress.

Maybe some CEO's should demand a hearing where they can drill some congressmen about their sticky fingers and vote buying...Barney Frank? Chris Dodd?
