FFRF asks Obama to drop religion in presidential oath

The Freedom From Religion Foundation has sent a letter to President Obama asking him to reject the way this country politicizes religion.

As FFRF has always done before presidential inaugurations, we are asking President Obama to honor the Constitution on Jan. 21 by omitting that religious verbiage from the Oath of Office.
