Watch out for that Separation of Church/NFL

I'm torn between righteous indignation and fits of laughter at a bit of news I first learned about at the Media Monarchy blog: bill would end separation of church & super bowl

It seems that Senator Arlen Specter introduced a bill (S. 2591) this week that would allow Churches... er... houses of worship to show football games on big-screen televisions.

Now seriously, folks... Is that REALLY the best use of Specter's time and position? Are there no other... oh, I dunno... more pressing needs? Darfur perhaps?

Is it any wonder that the public's opinion of Congress as a whole is so incredibly low?
