Best Secret Message on a Congressman's Stationery

AMDG

Oooh, that sneaky Bob Schaffer: If he weren't keeping his initial campaign promise and getting out after his third term in the U.S. House of Representatives, we just might have to spank him. Ever since he was elected back in 1996, Schaffer, a conservative (and then some), has been sneaking the letters "AMDG" onto his official congressional stationery -- and even some of the pages of his Web site. Separating the church from the state, the initials stand for "ad majorem Dei glorium," which translates to "for the greater glory of God."
