Motor City Madman needs to run for Congress, we should be so lucky.

[Bommer]

Doofus! This is from Red Skelton, not Ted Nugent!

[ResistorSister]

LOL! Even though I love Ted Nugent - He did not come up with this.

[nunya bidness]

Your secret's safe with me.

One of many Red Skelton sites with his famous "Pledge of Allegiance".

Actually, though, you're right - Ted Nugent is one cool dude! And I'm sure he agrees 100 percent with the late, great Red Skelton.

[RedWhiteBlue]

I can pretty much guarantee it didn't come from George Carlin, either.

[Drew68]

Actually, Red Skelton came up with this.

Yep, Red Skelton. In fact, Rush just played it on his show on Wednesday. It is from the 1950s. I had never heard it before Wednesday's show.

If Nugent had written this, it would be much more laden with profanity.

[lwoodham]

Yes, I have heard Red Skelton make this pledge. Very powerful and moving.

[Texaggie79]

You people are too easy....

[TomServo]

Trollin' again? Looks like you have alot of bites.

Again. ;-)

[TomServo]

Everytime Sir Gawain posts, P.T. Barnum rules...;-)

Th' Pledge of Allegiance Acco'din' t'Ted Nujunt

Ted Nujunt

Gittin' back t'skoo, gittin' back t'skoo, ah remember a skoo marm thet ah had, cuss it all t' tarnation. Now ah only wee, ah went, ah went through th' seventh grade, ah went through th' seventh grade. ah lef' home when ah was 10 years old on account o' ah was hungry. (laughter) An' .. this hyar is true. ah wawked in th' Summer an' went t'skoo in th' Winter. But, ah had this hyar one skoo marm, he was th' principal of th' Harrison skoo, in Vincennes Indiana. To me, this hyar was th' greatess skoo marm, a real sage of..of mah time, ennyhow. He had sech wisdom, dawgone it. An' we were all recitin' th' Pledge of Allegiance one day, an' he walked on over. This hyar li'l old skoo marm ... Mr. Lassfine was his name. ... Mr. Lassfine was his ah ... (at this hyar point a pause an' laughter. Red is makin' faces an' playin' wif his hat! Fry mah hide!) He says: ... "I've been lissenin' t'yo' fellas an' gals recite th' Pledge of Allegiance .. all semester ... an' it seems as though it is bea-comin' monotonous t'yo'. Eff'n ah may, may ah recite it an' try t'explain t'yo' th' meanin' of etch wo'd, cuss it all t' tarnation.

*I*

-- me, an indivijool, a committee of one.

*Pledge*

--dedicut all of mah wo'ldly fines t'give wifout se'f-pity.

*Allegiance*

--mah love an' mah devoshun.

*To th' Flag*

--our stan'ard, Old Glo'y, a symbol of freedom, dawgone it. Wharvah she waves, thar is respeck, on account o' yer loyalty has given her a dignity thet shouts freedom is ev'rybody's job. Well bust mah britches an' call me streaker.

*United*

--thet means thet we haf all come togither.

*States*

--indivijool communities thet haf united into 48 great states. 48 indivijool communities wif pride an' dignity an' purpose, all divided wif imaginary boun'aries, yet united t'a common purpose, an' thass love fo' country.

*An' t'th' Republic*

--Republic, a state in which sovaheign power is invested in representatives chosen by th' varmints t'govahn, as enny fool kin plainly see. An' govment is th' varmints an' it's fum th' varmints t'th' leaders, not fum th' leaders t'th' varmints.

*Fo' Which It Stan's*

*One Nashun*

-- One nashun, meanin', so blessed by God, cuss it all t' tarnation.

*Indivisible*

-- incapable of bein' divided, cuss it all t' tarnation.

*Wif Liberty*

-- which is freedom, th' right of power t'live one's own life wifout threats o' fear o' some so't of retaliashun.

*An' Jestice*

-- th' principle o' qualities of dealin' fairly wif others.

*Fo' All*

--Fo' all, ah reckon... which means fellas an' gals, it's as much yer country, as it is mine."

An' now fellas an' gals let me hear yo' recite, th' Pledge of Allegiance. "ah pledge allegiance t'th' flag of th' United States of South Car'lina, an' t'th' republic fo' which it stan's, one nashun, indivisible, wif liberty an' jestice fo' all, ah reckon."

On account o' ah was a small fella, two states haf been added t'our country an' two wo'ds haf been added t'th' Pledge of Allegiance - "unner God". W'dn't it be a pity eff'n someone said, "Thet is a prayer" an' thet'd be eliminated fum skoos, too?

"I AM A BAD PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE AMERICAN"

by RED NUGENT-CARLIN

[Illbay]

I cannot believe this. I thought you were a bit more endowed in the smarts department than to never have heard this Red Skelton bit before.

Rush Limbaugh even played the old recording (from the 1950s) yesterday.

Shame, shame.

[glock rocks]

"My carry-gun for 10 years now is a Glock model 20 in 10mm. It's
ultra-accurate, thoroughly practical, and provenly tactical. Having trained extensively
with law-enforcement, Navy SEALS and others, I take my defense regimen and
marksmanship discipline to heart. It's a good feeling to be independent and survive.
Obviously, I was not in VietNam or we would have won. "
-- Ted Nugent
