Allow me to remind you about Michael Newdow, doctor, lawyer, atheist and general pain in the neck. Newdow is living proof that litigious life begins at conception. From the beginning, he claimed to be the victim of a "date rape" that produced his daughter. He signs his child support checks with the motto "under protest."
-- Ellen Goodman for The Washington Post
Monk didn't know this about Mr. Newdow, and one just finds it funny.
Newdow is the one who brought suit to have the phrase "under God" stricken from the Pledge of Allegiance. Ms. Goodman takes up the side issue of child custody, which was the technical ground that the Supreme Court used to dismiss the suit.
