Which has done more good?
The ten commandments?
Or the Bill of Rights?
The Bill of Rights directly violates commandments;
#1. You can have all the gods you want.
#2. Graven images are completely legal.
#3. Freedom of speech allows taking the lords name in vain.
#4. We don't have to have any Sabbath day, let alone Sunday.
#5. We don't have to honor our parents, especially if they are alcoholics.
#7. Adultery is not actually a crime. Felony or misdemeanor.
#10. Coveting is also not a crime.
The only ones that are actually laws are;
#6. Killing. Which is broken during wars and executions.
#8. Stealing. Which a good lawyer can get you off on.
#9. Lying is debatable since politicians would all be in jail if lying were outlawed.
If this nation was founded on christian principles the ten commandments would be law.

I'm not sure who if anyone taught you American history in school, but we are quite simply not, nor have we ever been, a "Christian nation."
The First Amendment states that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.” John Adams wrote in the treaty of Tripoli, “As the government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion.” Thomas Jefferson once stated, “…that our civil rights have no dependence on our religious opinions.”
Our founding fathers made sure that the first issue covered in the very document that defined us as a nation and as a people assured that no one... no one would be counted out, not by law nor legislation, based upon their religious affiliation or lack thereof. This was first and foremost. Benjamin Franklin professed himself a deist in his auto-biography, which means essentially that society can come to understand the existence of a creator God without the need for organized religion. Thomas Jefferson was a Unitarian, which rejects the doctrine of the Holy Trinity. In his letter to Sir Edward Newenham in 1792, George Washington wrote, "Religious controversies are always productive of more acrimony and irreconcilable hatreds than those which spring from any other cause." Do these sound like the thoughts and the ideologies of men who insisted that we are a "Christian nation"?
While it's true that over 78% of this country claims to follow a Christian faith (51% Protestant, 23% Catholic, and those figures also include 0.7% Jehovah's Witnesses and 1.7% Mormons), 1.7% are Jewish, 0.7% are Buddhist, 0.6% are Muslim, 0.4% are Hindu, and the remaining 16% are unaffiliated with any religion. Out of the 78% of Americans who are Christian, roughly 40% attend church on a regular basis.
Our government was established under the idea that it was of the people, by the people, for the people. This counts for all the people. Even if a majority of Americans claim to be Christian, the remaining shall not be counted out.

Sorry to break this to you, but if the Fast and Furious Operation didn't go through, Brian Terry would probably still be dead.
Criminals in Mexico can easily obtain guns elsewhere. You're acting as if Fast and Furious is the only way Mexicans can get guns illegaly.
The stock market pretty much doubled under Obama's office, America still makes cars. I can go on and on...

The contempt of congress was a political stunt. If you can't see that then you really are ******* gullible. Tell me, what did Holder withhold? EXACTLY which documents did he refuse to hand over? Do you even know or are you simply repeating the mantra that says that he is withholding documents? If you can't state specifics then I would ask you, who is being a lap dog?
