Elective office is not subject to free-speech protection. The voters can dump you for any reason or none at all.
Learn it. Love it. Live it.

I won't stand for it either. On the other hand, I support all the other conservative views. But, how ridiculous that he doesn't recognize the right of the voters to not vote for him for that reason or any other.
To: Former Military Chick
While he's only getting a bit of the intolerance that his sort dishes out, I think it's a bad precedent to remove him simply for refusing to recite the pledge. Now if there is more to this story then that's another thing, but the pledge shouldn't be mandatory for anyone...imo.

I doubt that the pledge was the reason he got kicked out of office, or at least not the only one. People like that just love annoying other people and they do eventually get what's coming to them.
"We didn't toss you out of office just because you wouldn't say the pledge. We tossed you out because you're a f*ing idiot!"

Although I agree with the assertion of the deposed that it flies in the face of self-determination and liberty to insist that people do ANYTHING (Pledge of allegiance included), it was rather stupid on his part to make such a public spectacle of himself, thus opening the door for a recall.
In other words, he's perfectly entitled to believe (or in this case, not) whatever his little heart desires. Had he NOT made such a big deal of it, however, he likely would never have been voted back out of office.

To acknowledge "one nation under God" is to acknowledge that such is the belief of most Americans. It doesn't have to be his belief but he needs to show simple respect for others. Saying the pledge did him no harm. He is a narcissistic ***hole. Me me me me me me me. We don't have to change our culture because someone is "offended."

Mr. Habecker, who lost by a vote of 903-605, said he is considering whether to pursue further legal action to overturn the recall outcome, arguing that the voters had infringed upon his First Amendment rights.DUH! A government for the people and by the people.
If this guy thinks he has the right to over ride the peoples vote because he doesn't agree with their vote, then he doesn't belong in a government position in this country anyway.

What an ignorant moron. The 1st Amendment says that the GOVERNMENT cannot deny free speech to citizens. It does not say that citizens must grant free speech to members of the government (even penny-ante town trustees).

"It was a conscientious objection on my part. To take a loyalty oath before the meeting starts -- that's not American," Mr. Habecker said.You did proclaim your loyalty, Mr. Habecker -- to agnosticism. And your pointed refusal to declare your loyalty to your country didn't go unnoticed either. I get you're just not much of a crowd pleaser.
