rintense spouted:
I recited the Pledge ever single day of elementary school. We also sand 'My Country Tis of Thee'. Just waiting for THAT to be shot down. Is nothing sacred?

Just a review, here:
My country tis of thee, sweet land of liberty
of thee i sing
land where my fathers died, land of the pilgrim's pride
from every mountain side let freedom ring

Hmmmm....I'm not seeing anything here referencing a particular religion. I think this one's safe.

THINK! READ THE RULING! The entire pledge has NOT been struck down, only TWO WORDS added in 1956.

*Restore the pledge to its pre-Eisenhower condition representing ALL Americans!*
