Poll:  Keeping In God We Trust?

The U.S. House has voted to keep the longstanding phase "In God We Trust" as the official motto of the United States.

The resolution, which required a two-thirds majority, passed with a 396 to 9 vote.

"In God We Trust" first gained its title in 1956.  But the bill's Republican sponsors say recent actions by "un-elected bureaucrats" have undermined the slogan's standing.  Therefore, they felt a vote was needed in order to set the record straight and stop a "disturbing trend" of dismissing the motto.  Democrats opposed to the bill say it was a distraction from the real problems.

Tonight in the Daily Pulse, we're wondering:  Do you support keeping "In God We Trust" as the official motto of the United States?  Yes or no?
