I don't take it lightly to stand on the floor of the United States Congress and talk about this subject. Most people who do not have a Biblical undergirding would watch this and wonder why I would take the time to do this on the floor of the House of Representatives. It is because of the things that I pointed out in my commentary and many Members have pointed out, whether it be George Washington, who said in his farewell address that you can't even claim to be a patriot if you should seek to undermine the pillars of religion and morality. It is the bended-knee Washington that is to my left here who we know not only believed that a nation was to call itself unto a place of a posture of humility but as individuals. History is ripe with all the different things that Washington did and said. He even banned cursing in his Army because of his observance to his code of virtue, as derived from the reading of his Bible. You have a man who claimed to be an enemy of vice and a friend of virtue, Benjamin Franklin.
