In a move that is pure political theater, the Republican members of the House will read the Constitution on the floor of the chamber. Of course this is to show that they are "behind the constitution" and the Democrats are not. After much wrangling the Democrats were invited to join in.
My question is this, "when the Republicans get to that part in the Bill of Rights about, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion..." I wonder if they will choke? These are the same politicians who have falsely claimed that America is a "Christian nation". Our founding fathers must be rolling in their deist graves!
The good thing is for many of the new lawmakers this will be the first time they have ever actually read the document.
