“The Prayer at Valley Forge” painting by Arnold Friberg
A federal judge ruled against a public school teacher who filed a lawsuit after administrators removed Christian-themed postings from his classroom, including a depiction of George Washington praying at Valley Forge and news clippings about the faith of President Bush and former Attorney General John Ashcroft.William Lee – a Spanish teacher at Tabb High School in York County, Va. – was represented by the Christian public-interest group Rutherford Institute in U.S. District court, arguing his free-speech rights were violated.
The postings, removed at the beginning of the 2004-05 school year after a parent complained, included news articles about Bush’s Christian faith and Ashcroft’s prayer meetings with staffers.
But Judge Rebecca Beach Smith wrote in her opinion the case “is not about what free speech rights Lee has as an individual expressing himself on private property,” according to the Associated Press.
“Rather, this case is a question about what free speech rights Lee has as a public school teacher-employee,” she said.
School officials also removed from Lee’s classroom a flier promoting the National Day of Prayer.
Lee’s attorneys argued his bulletin boards were a limited public forum for the private speech of teachers, but Smith insisted they were part of his curriculum and, therefore, not protected by the First Amendment, the AP said.
Let’s look at the facts of this case. If this teacher were to have had posters of, oh, I don’t know, let’s say for arguments sake, “Great Moments in Islamic History” depicting muhammeds slaughter of a Jewish tribe, or a poster of che the magnificient, would this even be an issue? What if he were to put up a poster of the great generalissimos of latin america, dictators to the last man? Would THAT be permissible? We will probably never know, as this man is obviously a Christian and a Patriot, which makes him one of the most dangerous types of people in the world today.
Any bets on whether he is white or not? And yes, I am playing the race card. What? I can’t do that? Why?
The fact of the matter is this: If this teacher had pictures up of ANYONE except the Pope or a Great Patriot or a Christian religious figure, (Martin Luther, St. Christopher, name your figure) nobody would have DARED to complain at all. They would have cowered in fear of “offending” his “culture,” and not one word would have been said about it.
But the culture of this country, the culture of AMERICA, that is overwhelmingly Christian and holds our Founding FATHERS in EXTREMELY HIGH ESTEEM is targeted and allowed to be attacked, and any that DARE to stand up and say “ENOUGH!!!” are labeled as “racist” and “religious zealots”!!!!
I have had ENOUGH myself.
To those of you that believe you can continue to attack the Patriotic underpinnings of this Great Nation I have a small bit of advice; We will NOT continue to stand silent while you take away our freedom to live as we so choose. You will not be able to continue to to force us to hide in the shadows, fearful of “offending” your tender sensibilities. Someday, you will push one too many times, and when we rise up to push back, you will feel the Absolute and Rightous Fury of Free Men once again Claiming what God has decreed to be our Right.
Our Freedom.

Not “someday” Jay. Today. We’re kicking their tales on abortion and you wait and see just how many Americans get fed up with this anti-God, anti-American crap. Their idea of separation of church and state is Waco.
Very well said Jay!
Excellent article Jay. The key here is the jacka$$ judge. This liberal dolt does not understand that our Freedom Of Speach rights do not end or cease to exist at a threshold to public property. They exist everywhere within the US borders. Second, you have every right to play the race card as you call it. Do you think for a minute that Jesse Jackson or Al (I’m a racist) Sharpton would hesitate to do the same?? I think not.
Wow!!! I especially like that last paragraph. I often wonder how many “silent majority Christians” there are. I bet there’s more than we could imagine.
As far as the race card, why not, I’m sick of Christians, white men and Jews being the butt of every black comedians’ joke, for instance, yet we can’t even utter a joke about blacks, hispanics, arabs, gays or ESPECIALLY Islamists.
You tell em Jay. I quit being silent about this two years ago. I am a soldier in this fight and I will NOT stand for the attacks on America anymore. If you hate America, I have two words for you. GET OUT!! Since when did it become a crime to show patriotism. I think this judge ought to be impeached.
Damn Jay, you riled ‘em with that speech, son. Good on ya mate.
