Pledge of Allegiance

Several people already know about the ruling in California about reciting the Pledge of Allegiance in schools being unconstitutional. Once again, California has proven itself to be insane. The same guy that tried to get the Pledge declared illegal has his hand in this thing as well. And the judge must have the Hollywood version of the Constitution. Hopefully, the Supreme Court's version is closer to the original.

Interesting thing, is the response to this by my radio station, KXKT 103.7 "The Kat." Yesterday, the morning show called on people to call in and recite the pledge of allegiance with them. On Fridays, they do this CAR-aoke thing, where you sing along with a song on the radio while calling in and you get a prize. Today's was singing the National Anthem. They also had several people calling in giving their two-cents about the ruling, and everyone in Omaha is strongly opposed to the ruling. Even my high school put a little plaque in the cafeteria for all to see with the Pledge of Allegiance (I can almost guarantee that the students did that).

A statement for California: Most of this country IS patriotic. Most of this country considers you to be insane and that most of what you do is not right for America. You're not impressing anyone with trying to make the world "right" by denying everyone else the right to express our faith, our patriotism, or anything else that you may think is "inappropriate." Your idea of seperation of church and state is not in the Constitution, but free speech is; and any abridgement of it, including prayer in school and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance, is DEFINITELY wrong and certainly unconstitutional. California shall not rewrite the Constitution to meet its whim.
