transgressions.
A clear line must be drawn: the President or a clergyman selected by the President has the right to give a prayer of their choice.  However, if this Court agrees with the Magistrate Judges' conclusion that the constitutionality of any specific prayer must be determined based upon its content. President Bush requests an opportunity to submit supplemental briefing on this issue.
II.  CONCLUSION
Accordingly, President Bush respectfully requests that this Court adopt the Magistrate Judge's Findings and Recommendation that an inaugural prayer does not violate the Establishment Clause, and dismiss all claims against him with prejudice.
