THIS repulsive lezbean has gone out of her way to offend Christ Jesus. I can tell you that if she tried to take office without swearing an oath on the KJV Bible here in Freehold, she'd find herself tazed, strip-searched, and locked up in the hoosegow before she could say "Richard Dawkins." 
A jewess? 
Maryland City Council Member Won’t Take Oath on Bible Because That’s Not What She Was Elected to Uphold
On Dec. 1, Jessica Fitzwater will raise her right hand and take the same oath of office as her fellow incoming council members.
But there will be one difference in her pledge before friends, family and elected officials: The book under her left hand will not be the Bible.
Fitzwater, who is Jewish, said she's not interested in replacing the Bible with a Torah. Instead, she is thinking of taking the oath on the Frederick County charter or some other government document that will represent her commitment to public service.
"I think it's more appropriate to swear my oath on something I will be upholding. I'm not upholding the teachings of the Bible. I'm upholding the charter or the Constitution," said Fitzwater, who will represent Council District 4.
Fitzwater said she has always supported the separation of church and state but only recently resolved on taking her oath of office on a nonreligious document.
That doesn't mean religion will be entirely absent from the ceremony, which will feature an invocation led by a priest and a benediction by Fitzwater's rabbi. Fitzwater said the event would have included prayer regardless of her preference.
"If there is a religious aspect to the event, I would rather there be more denominations included," Fitzwater said
