Well-well ... didn't take long for Governor Pat-Bob to institute his promised "Back To Christ" program, did it? But, pardon me -- them 'Ginians deserve what and who they voted for ... yuk-yuk-yuk! =========== LOCAL DIGEST The Washington Post April 29, 2010, B2 VIRGINIA "Police can say 'Jesus' in public prayers" After months of lobbying by conservative activists, Gov. Robert F. McDonnell has quietly reversed a policy banning Virginia State Police troopers from referring to Jesus Christ in public prayers. On Wednesday, McDonnell (R) sent Col. W. Steven Flaherty, the state police superintendent, to tell the nine troopers who serve as chaplains about the change. In September 2008, Flaherty told chaplains to offer nondenominational prayers at department-sanctioned public events in response to a federal appeals court ruling that a Fredericksburg City Council member may not pray "in Jesus's name" during council meetings because the opening invocation is government speech. -- Anita Kumar http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/04/28/AR2010042805664_2.html
