<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">WASHINGTON (BP)</span> "<cite>At
least
some lawyers who support the reference to God in the Pledge of
Allegiance left the March 24 oral arguments at the Supreme Court

They don't want to rule "Under God" unconstitutional, but they don't
want to be seen as overtly supporting religious expression.  I think
they'll take the easy way out and rule that Newdow <em>doesn't have
standing</em> and dismiss the case.</p>
