And thus the 1/3 who will always vote Democrat. In fact, the number is probably about 40%.

I pledge alligence to the fags
In the divided states of America
And for the Abortion,
For which Libs stand,
Old nation

All miserable
With Sodomy and free condoms for all

Are they also wanting to remove “Year of our Lord” from the US Constitution?

one-third would like “under God” removed, after being told those words were not part of the original text.

Were they also told the Pledge isn't even that old, adopted by Congress in 1942, only 12 years before the insertion of God.

It's not like it goes back to the Founding.

It was written in 1892 by Francis Bellamy, a Christian, a socialist and a nationalist. Though not necessarily a national socialist.

Translation: One-third of Americans (probably) don’t want to pledge themselves to any Pledge of Allegiance ......

And this shows how easily people are being manipulated by surveys/polls.

That is why I don’t do surveys, unless they pay me for my opinions. So far no takers.

They already threw out the flag and the Republic - it was only a matter of time until the Creator got tossed too.

God and the United States shall always be inseparable. If and when the United States abandons God, the United States will cease to be the United States.

I'm not going to try to stop anybody from reciting the Pledge. But beware that there is arguably a Trojan Horse in the Pledge.

More specifically, not only was the Pledge authored by a socialist, but using terms like, "one Nation" and "indivisible," the Pledge is arguably pro-big federal government propaganda.

In fact, reflecting 10th Amendment-protected state sovereignty, Thomas Jefferson had noted that each state should regard itself as an individual, sovereign nation, while foreign nations should regard the states as one unified nation.

”The true theory of our Constitution is surely the wisest and best, that the States are independent as to everything within themselves, and united as to everything respecting foreign nations.” —Thomas Jefferson to Gideon Granger, 1800.

I loudly proclaim “under God” and then do not say the word “indivisible” while reciting the pledge.

When you ask a dog and his fleas to vote on whether or not to maintain their relationship, nobody wonders how that vote goes.

Sorry, the 1/3 who want to remove “Under God” ARE, BY DEFINITION, NOT AMERICANS.

A poll by the American Humanist Association is as good as a poll by Al Qaeda.

I will admit I haven't yet read the article, but here's my thoughts anyway based on the headline: Complete and total BS. In the first place, anyone who cares about the Pledge enough to answer a SURVEY about it, is NOT someone who will rant that "under God" should be removed. Stupid, crap-ass stuff like this is fabricated by some commie pissants, disseminated by their fellow travelers in the Democrat Propoganda Department media, and used to create a perception... which further, is launched onto a million social network pages, until this time next year, some dingbat House member is sponsoring a bill to bring "hope and change" to the masses.

What was the question asked in the poll for that kind of a result? The way a question is worked sways the results of the poll. I cannot believe that one third of the people responded that way to an honest, straight-forward question. I would bet that if you investigate that poll, you’d find that it wasn’t straight forward the way it was asked.
