Nebraska Senator Sues God

This story proves that baffling the imagination gets harder and harder every day.

Nebraska State Senator Ernie Chambers has sued God. Mr. Chambers sued Him because, "Chambers says in his lawsuit that God has made terroristic threats against the senator and his constituents, inspired fear and caused "widespread death, destruction and terrorization of millions upon millions of the Earth's inhabitants." (WaPo).

Chambers, of course, first gained national attention for his effort to re-segregate Omaha school districts.

Sadly, the Senator is going to be leaving the legislature in 2008, as he is term limited.

We already have juvenile court and courts for civil suits.. why not a separate court system for frivolous lawsuits?

Maybe someone ought to sue this Senator for wasting tax dollars.
