An irritated Barbara Walters on Thursday touted the importance of the separation of church and state. The View hosts discussed a new ad by Democratic Senator Mark Pryor, under fire for supporting ObamaCare, in which he declared himself a Bible-believing Christian. Walters declared, "The basic tenet in America is the separation. And it's very important. And it's very important, the separation of church and state." Of course, "separation of church and state" is nowhere in the Constitution. Walters didn't mention this. She added, "We talk about the separation between church and state and almost every president ends up saying so help me God." Walters recounted, "Now, most presidents swear on a Bible before taking office, even though we have the separation between church and state."
