Reclaiming the Common Law for Jefferson

By Ed Brayton

Someone sent me a link to a group called Reclaiming Oklahoma for Christ, which looks like a typical religious right group. They're big fans of uber-wingnut Sally Kern and that proclamation of morality she's pushing, fake quotes and all. On their front page they also have items about Jerry Boykin, the simply insane former general who waxes eloquent about his God beating up the Muslim god, and John Morris of the Institute for Creation Research. Pretty much a one-stop shop of religious right absurdity.

But one article particularly caught my eye, with the headline Why The Koran Cannot Be Used for the Oath of Public Office in America. Oh goody, I thought; this should be fun.
