What more can be said
Here ya go:
” Gayle Ruzicka, president of conservative Utah Eagle Forum, said the video was blatantly political. She said other offensive pledges included, “I pledge to be of service to Barack Obama,” “I pledge allegiance to the funk, to the united funk of funkadelica,” and pledges to not use plastic grocery bags and not flush the toilet after urinating. “It’s very inappropriate to show a radical, leftist propaganda piece that political to children,” Ruzicka said. “If parents want their children to learn about those things and do them in the home, wonderful, fine, but it’s not the place of the school to show a one-sided propaganda piece to children without parents knowing about it.” Cieslewicz said such values should be decided in the home, not at school.
That’s catchy - love it!
Oh. My. God.
at 3:54 mark- “I pledge to be a SERVANT to out president”
A SERVANT!!!
This is just plain wrong, and smacks more than a little of outright fascism.
No President who really believed in the Constitution or the American tradition would allow such a thing to be done in his name.
That 0 not only allows, but encourages, this type of thing speaks volumes about the man and his principles, or rather, his utter lack of them.
Not to mention his unfitness for office.
Obama’s become like the guy at work you avoid because while he might be a “nice guy”, he’s trouble.
Notice how many are now coming forward and making sure people know THEY didn’t vote for him? Even those I swore were avowed liberals are claiming they voted for Nader or the like. One admitted voting for Cynthia McKinney but had no idea who she was or what she represented. What could be more sad?
The more days pass for this administration, the more I feel like a cast member in a sequel to ‘The Wave’.

Could someone post what this is about? I clicked on link and screen froze from stupid popups.
I think a Black Panther poster would be more appropriate.
"Auch du" = "You too"
I - - Me; an individual; a committee of one.
Pledge - - Dedicate all of my worldly goods to give without self-pity.
Allegiance - - My love and my devotion.
To the Flag - - Our standard; Old Glory ; a symbol of Freedom; wherever she waves there is respect, because your loyalty has given her a dignity that shouts, Freedom is everybody's job.
United - - That means that we have all come together.
States - - Individual communities that have united into forty-eight great states. Forty-eight individual communities with pride and dignity and purpose. All divided with imaginary boundaries, yet united to a common purpose, and that is love for country.
And to the Republic - - Republic--a state in which sovereign power is invested in representatives chosen by the people to govern. And government is the people; and it's from the people to the leaders, not from the leaders to the people.
For which it stands One Nation - - One Nation--meaning, so blessed by God.
Indivisible - - Incapable of being divided.
With Liberty - - Which is Freedom; the right of power to live one's own life, without threats, fear, or some sort of retaliation.
And Justice - - The principle, or qualities, of dealing fairly with others.
For All - - For All--which means, boys and girls, it's as much your country as it is mine.
And now, boys and girls, let me hear you recite the Pledge of Allegiance:
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.
Since I was a small boy, two states have been added to our country,
and two words have been added to the Pledge of Allegiance: Under God.
Wouldn't it be a pity if someone said that is a prayer, and that would be eliminated from schools, too?
I swore an oath to support and defend the Constiturion of The US of A against all enemies, Foreign or Domestic.
I swore no oath to support ANY individual in the US Government.
Each and every officer who swore allegiance swore the same as did I.
He disgusts me. I literally want to vomit when I hear his voice on TV ... and I can’t seem to get away from it. Even Fox News broadcasts every little fart in the wind that he makes.
Aaarrrrggggghhhhh!
Every time I hear something new about Obomba I ask myself “What if Bush had done this?”
Then I say a little prayer for more country and choke back the vomit.
