Get it Right, Jake Tapper

I know… actually reading and understanding things before you report on them is hard work, but really… isn’t that what you get paid for?
Newdow, who lost a battle in the U.S. Supreme Court to have the words “under God” excised from the pledge of allegiance, is one of 18 people and 10 atheist organizations who sued Chief Justice John Roberts, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., and two of the pastors who will be part of the Inaugural ceremony — Rev. Joseph Lowery and Rev. Rick Warren — to prevent Mr. Obama from adding the heavenly acknowledgement, and to prevent Lowery from delivering the benediction and Warren the invocation.
No, he was JUST trying to prevent the Chief Justice from saying it, not Obama himself. Try to at least understand the story before you write about it.
