Sarah Palin: Paul Revere's Ride to Protect the Second Amendment

It was added the year I was born

That would be 1954, which makes you 57 this year, just a callow youth:

A brief history of the pledge:

In 1954, Congress after a campaign by the Knights of Columbus, added the words, 'under God,' to the Pledge. The Pledge was now both a patriotic oath and a public prayer.

Did you notice this part? I think reference was made to it above:

Francis Bellamy (1855 - 1931), a Baptist minister, wrote the original Pledge in August 1892. He was a Christian Socialist. In his Pledge, he is expressing the ideas of his first cousin, Edward Bellamy, author of the American socialist utopian novels, Looking Backward (1888) and Equality (1897).

Just an interesting side note.
 
Nice dodge to my question. Problem with Obama is he tried to lie about his associations
There was no need to answer your question as it was a deflection from answering mine. Still, she is guilty by association, just like Obama. Her husband wants to break up our nation, she must believe that too. Many Conservatives called Obama out for serving 20 years in Wright's church, she's married longer than that to a man who does not want to be in the United States of America.
 
Just an interesting side note.

I'm glad that source talked about the socialist undertones of the pledge. All too often, people forget that it was designed to help promote socialist ideals in children.

It is very ironic that many of those those who claim that there is a socialist indoctrination in public schools today with issues such as gay rights are also some of the biggest supporters of this socialist indoctrination tool.

Obama called Wright a mentor and an adviser and yet did not know after 20 years the racist speech of Wright. This made Obama not credible and in my opinion a liar.

You refuse to answer the question because it will show spouses do not agree on everything.

You mean the indoctrination of being glad you live in the greatest country in the world. Or are you like Obama and thing we need to apologize

So what? The Alaskan Quitter has been married to her husband longer than that and she knows that he doesn't want to be an American. The MILF Quitter is touring the country on the notion of keeping the country "indivisible." By your own standard, that makes her not credibile and in my opinion, a liar.

I didn't bother answering it because a) it was nothing but deflection on your part from my question; and b) meaningless because Obama doesn't agree with Wright on everything and that doesn't stop the right from tarring and feathering him over his association with Wright.

It's that same guilt by association which condemns Sarah Palin.

You show your hate and make excuses to not answer questions that go against your point. You show why democrats can't be trusted and are not credible

Oh man don't be such hater. Drink this magical tea and feel the love of Rush Limbaugh.

Otherwise you are nothing but a feminazi commy fascist intent on the destruction of the American way of life!

/sarcasm
 
Whats your point?

You said the US is the greatest country in the world to live in. The only way you could know that is if you've lived in many othe rcountries. I was just curious as to which ones you've lived in.

If you don't like it here leave

Where'd you get that idea?

Name a better country

No, indoctrination to make them good little socialists. Do you think the pledge should be recited in public schools, even knowing the source of it?

Or, did you read the posts telling about the author of the pledge?

(hypothesis #2.....)

I saw that clip last night. Pretty impressive.

I put some credence in the opinions of babies and pets as to someones credibility.

If my dog doesn't trust you, I don't trust you.

Of course the baby in the clip just may have been missing its daddy, or Obama may wear the.same cologne or something.

You appear to be posting in a mirror again. Just substitute your lean for lib, and baby? It's YOU.

Same, and i was thinking along the same lines (i.e. daddy instead of all these lumpy people).
 
How would I know, I've never lived anywhere else. You obviously have, though.

Don't have to but I have driven into Canada many times with my big truck. I have visited Mexico. I see nothing there that impressed me.

You want to rant and rave yet you know no better place

The source. How is it you are not crying seperation? It has been changed and the modern pledge is more a Patriotic oath and a prayer
