Department of Veterans Affairs Accused of Taking Jesus/God Out of Prayers at Houston National Cemetary

There is censorship going on at the Department of Veteran Affairs in Houston. Veterans are reporting they are censoring God and Jesus out of prayers at the Houston National Cemetery.

Fox News Reports:

Three organizations -- the Veterans of Foreign Wars, The American Legion and the National Memorial Ladies -- allege that the cemetery's director and other government officials have created "religious hostility" at the cemetery and are violating the First Amendment. According to court documents filed this week in federal court, the cemetery's director, Arleen Ocasio, has banned saying "God" at funerals and requires prayers be submitted in advance for government approval, MyFoxHouston.com reports.

What a kick in the ass! These veterans took an oath to protect the Constitution and when it comes time to honor them at the moment of death, the federal government now appears to be requiring pre-approval of any prayer said at a service at the Houston National Cemetery. If they can control a prayer and censor it, what do you think that means for a free press?
