Can't use Pledge of Allegiance to comply with law (Pledge Banned in Madison, WI Schools)

Wisconsin State Journal ^ | 10/8/01 | Doug Erickson Education reporter

That's ridiculous! Public schools here still say the pledge every morning, every grade, 1-12. Fight it! Where can we write/call/fax?

[TLBSHOW]

FReep Em Good and right back in their faces when they start this idiotness. Thats how we win. By the weekend they will say sorry. LOL

[Jean S]

Did you hear about this?

[Eric in the Ozarks]

If you're looking for a community that's truly nuts, go to Madison.

Morons like these are elected to run our public schools. Is it any wonder we're sinking into a cultural cesspool?

I'm a member of our local school board and if we were to introduce a motion like that we'd be run out of town!

LETS ROLL

The Madison School Board should be barred from receiving or handling American currency. It most certainly is tainted from handling money that says "In God We Trust" and they should stop it right now. Cut all funding to the district immediately and put them on a barter system.

BUMP

I was just going to post the same thing! If they are offended by the word 'God' they should immediately stop using all US currency.

This is the e-mail for our Wisconsin Governor (R) Scott McCallum. I'm sure he is horrified by this. Send him a note he controlls the $$

round up the "usual suspects"...

So do ours, they learn it in Kindergarten.
If this happened where I am, I would fight it.

[Bikers4Bush]

The socialists have taken over Wisconsin? When did this happen?

[SES1066]

No excusing but you got to remember that Madison was [is?] one of the most liberal university towns in the entire US. They had a very active SDS chapter in the Vietnam years and violent confrontations were the norm. I guess that the town and faculty probably hasn't moved far from their roots and philosophy.

I would guess that they would be outraged at an attack on the Dali Lama or if the plane had hit the HQ of Mother Jones or MS magazines. Otherwise, it is an unfortunate results of the US worldwide Imperialism and as such should not affect the ongoing multicultural offensive to make sure that no person anywhere should ever be offended by anything [except any member of the male white ruling class and their lackeys like Justice Thomas].
