Pretty soon, the pledge will be omitted

[DanMiller]

It won't be omitted, just changed, along with the National Anthem. Here's the new version of the Pledge.

New Pledge of Allegiance

I pledge obedience to the Flag

of the United Serfs of America,

and to the President for which whom it stands:

one Nation under Obama, Empathetic,

With Fairness and Security for all.

There. Isn't that better?

"Pretty soon, the pledge will be omitted"

I have mixed feelings about the pledge of allegiance that was penned by an avowed socialist without reference to God and with the "Bellamy Salute".

Our new Governor, Jay Inslee (Washington) voted in Sept. 2004 as a Senator to NOT protect the Pledge of Allegiance. Not sure what the details were, but it has been looked at obviously.
