Heres shocking video of State Senate Democrats, including Darrel Aubertine, Dave Valesky, Bill Stachowski, Brian Foley and every other Democrat lawmaker, sitting through the Pledge of Allegiance in protest over their loss of power in Albany.
The video shows one Democrat, Brooklyns Martin Dilan, trying to join in reciting the Pledge, but he is immediately and forcefully pulled down by two fellow Democrats, Kevin Parker of Brooklyn and Ruth Hassell-Thompson of Westchester.
Not a single Democrat lawmaker stood during the Pledge, including Sens. Darrel Aubertine, Bill Stachowski, Dave Valesky and Brian Foley.
The Democrats protest was an outrageous mixing of common civics and politics.
But it shouldnt be surprising, considering their refusal even to show up for nearly three weeks leading to today, when they locked themselves in the Chamber ahead of Republicans in a stunt reminiscent of the childs game, King of the Mountain.

Right wing patriotism...statism, conformity and collectivism...
The Pledge of Allegiance was written in 1892 by Francis Bellamy (1855-1931), a Baptist minister, a Christian socialist, and the cousin of socialist utopian novelist Edward Bellamy (1850-1898). Bellamy's original "Pledge of Allegiance" was published in the September 8th issue of the popular children's magazine The Youth's Companion as part of the National Public-School Celebration of Columbus Day, a celebration of the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's discovery of America, conceived by James B. Upham.
Bellamy's original Pledge read:
"I Pledge Allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands, one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all."
Salute
Reciting of the pledge is accompanied by a salute. An early version of the salute, adopted in 1892, was known as the Bellamy salute. It ended with the arm outstretched and the palm upwards. Because of the similarity between the Bellamy salute and the Nazi salute, President Franklin D. Roosevelt instituted the hand-over-the-heart gesture as the salute to be rendered by civilians during the Pledge of Allegiance and the national anthem in the United States, instead of the Bellamy salute. This was done when Congress officially adopted the Flag Code on June 22, 1942.
Under God Added
The Knights of Columbus, the world's largest Catholic fraternal service organization, in New York City felt that the pledge was incomplete without any reference to a deity. Appealing to the authority of Abraham Lincoln, the Knights felt that the words "under God" which were from Lincolns Gettysburg Address were most appropriate to add to the Pledge.

YouTube - Obama and the National Anthem
Look at who leads their party: Obama would rather handle his balls then pledge

Saul Alinksy would be oh so proud at how you equated our elected representative standing for the pledge with Nazi Germany.
We're going to treat our elected officials the same way they treat our founding principles, let's see who wins

How about we judge our elected officials by if they care about and are looking for the health and well being of We the People...
The GOP is devoid of any...

Oh contraire, assclown. I simply call you for what you are - an assclown. In truth, your ridiculous over the top dramatisation of what you think I am is laughable. Seriously, you need to get out more. Or maybe just try and keep things in proportion. Idiot.
