Is there a conservative bone in your body?

Your green envy is most unattractive.

“Is there a conservative bone in your body?”

Yes. I fought bitterly agaisnt the changes in the Pledge of Allegiance sought by the GOP.

The current pldege:

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

The proposed GOP pledge:

I pledge allegiance, to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the pursuit of the Almighty Dollar, with liberty and justice for all, subject to conditions contained in the supplement to this Pledge, which includes, but is not limited to, justice only if such justice does not include any signifigant tranfer of wealth as is determined by the Insurance compaaies and big businesses within given geographic areas (aka Tort Reform), and only if such justice provides tax breaks for capital gains and signifigant welfare incentives for large corporations.

To be honest, the proposed Pledge did not have much support in Committee.

parsy, who says the GOP needs to examine its image vis a vis the rich and moneyed interests
