    If we’re going to step into this territory of beliefs dictating federal funding, let’s start with cutting all federal funding in the country that goes to ANY religious organization, church, school, hospital, etc. Oh, let’s also stop funding absolutely every fucking thing in the country that has a bible in it, or provides access to any religious text. Let’s also stop funding for any entity that allows religious prayer, wearing religious symbols, religious pictures, etc. None of these types of amendments have any fucking thing to do with medicine, it’s all just politics.

    OR, we could just stop pork barrel legislation and just vote on the legislation and its purpose, without taking any other unrelated shit that fits someone’s personal agenda or fills their pockets with money from bribery er, I mean, lobbyists.

    EDIT: Maybe she could just resign from congress and go fuck off for the rest of eternity. She is a malignant cancer on the country.

      Why stop there? Tax exemption is a subsidy, and offering tax exemptions on purely religious grounds is clearly “law respecting the establishment of religion”.
