Michael Newdow: Goofball

Just about everybody has linked to this story about Michael Newdow, the kooky atheist guy who wants to get "under God" taken out of the Pledge of Allegiance.

For one thing, he's a real jerk who really didn't want anything to do with his daughter until this Pledge case. Then there's this item:
