The comparison is beyond a stretch. We have a peaceful way to change leaders, judges, and the rest in this country. Not so in Iraq. The idiot author is over the top in trying to draw a comparison, even if only for effect.

There wasn't ANY Pledge until after Mr. Lincoln's war ; just the sensible requirement that officeholders of all levels swear to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution, Just as the First Admendment only prohibited the establishment of a State Church, not forbad God in public life ; I am VERY WARY of those who constantly wave their religion to distract us from their agenda of control.

I wish to have leaders and citizens who acknowledge the existence of a higher power for good, and who act in the expectation that their acts will be judged by the people and a just and loving God. I do not need FORCED pledges , as they are worthless.

Donohue always makes sweeping analogies for effect.
It gets people thinking - which is his goal.
