The ClayTaurus said:I dunno. It's pretty stupid for them to be so pissy about a word that in all reality should offend Christians as those who don't believe yet say it are patronizing.
But it's also stupid to draw up delusions of paranoid grandeur of the country falling apart after the word "God" is removed from the Pledge of Allegiance.
P is right. The stupid thing should go to a vote. It was put in without a vote and is trying to be taken out without a vote. Surely you'd be alright with letting the populous decide, right?
Why not?
Hey, since the left hates the phrase "under God" so much maybe while were at it we should also take out the phrase "to the United States of America" as well. It was added to the Pledge in the 1920s to help immigrant children know what country they were pledging to. Since "immigrants" aren't even required to obey the laws these days why not just drop that too?
Hey! Even better, maybe Michael Newdow & Michael Moore together will write us a new Pledge!
