You have a chance with elected officials. With judges, there is little recourse. The Feds have absolutely no constitutional right to tell Colorado citizens they cannot pass a law requiring the pledge to be recited in public schools. This is judicial tyranny and fiat law.

Exactly. Why bother having elections if judges decide what laws are good for us. Why have a Republic and go through the motion of having elections and passing laws when some judge decides in his fancy, oh I know better than the elected representatives of people what's good for the people and its my way or the highway.

Public schools = government schools -- more federal every day by the way -- (No Child Left Behind).
The government (state or federal) -- "government schools" can't coerce speech.
Get over it.
Private schools -- that's another matter. If you want your kid to be forced to say the Pledge of Allegiance -- send him/her to a private school.
