42. i say contact the ACLU and make a deal of it; it's only the beginning
and here is another point you can make about this...
recently, the court case got tossed from the guy who didn't want prayer in the coronation because a judge said that hearing a prayer wouldn't cause the man any harm

what type of harm does it cause a child to go to school and hear an authority figure bashing her belief system and her parent's belief system--i would imagine it's a hard hit to a kid.

you're daughter didn't cry and that was very brave. she seems to understand things on a deeper level and that's great.

i hope you pursue this. this type of thing cannot be tolerated. liberals tend to be known for their tolerance--well, we're starting to change (it's like if you listen to a racist talking and tolerate their comments you may as well be condoning what they are saying if you don't open your mouth and tell them it's offensive)

make a deal on this issue! (you know the repugs certainly would if some dem starting bashing bush)

how old is your daughter--or what grade is she in? was this a grade school, middle or high school?
