“I pledge to be of service to Barack Obama”
By Michelle Malkin • September 2, 2009 01:05 PM
As if I needed any more evidence to bolster today’s column about the Obama junior lobbyist campaign in America’s schools, here’s another item fresh from the headlines in Utah:
A school principal has apologized for showing a video at an assembly that a po ...[text shortened]... barack-obama/
This has been showed in elementary school.Thats roughly ages 5yrs-10 yr olds.
You should be happy that America has finally engaged in a true progressive revolution, whose goals shall be achieved by any means necessary.
Its time for you to stop resisting, free yourself from the shackles of capitalism, and finally join the revolution as well, comrade utherpendragon.

what would the left say if children had been shown a pledge saying "I pledge allegiance to the Bush"? They would of had a big problem with that...although the female liberals may have endorsed such a pledge.

Speak for yourself,not"most people".
It just seems to be the way it works in politics -- people are all for the idea of "less government" as long as it only involves "other people's programs" - but if it's their own ox getting gored, different story. You disagree?

Well that was said by the same knucklehead that said "i pledge allegiance to the funk...", i kinda throw out his parts of the video, but besides, Obama is the president--so I don't have a problem pledging allegiance/service to our president. If we want our country to be a better place we should all want our children growing up in a culture that prom ...[text shortened]... of the United States"? Probably, but it's really the same thing--they just used his name.

Originally posted by AThousandYoungI always respect the position a president has but I don't fancy pledging allegiance to a man puppet of the global elite. In the US we do not have to have allegiance to an individual and the fact that there are elections proves it. The main thing is that the constitution is protected and enforced. Neither party is willing to do so and I do not consider Republicans or Democrats as honorable oath keepers. There are good folks in each party but the parties themselves are vile to the one world core.

the president is your fuhrer, I mean, leader, and you shouldn't question him, if he thinks people should pledge allegiance to him then so be it.

Originally posted by generalissimoWhen people say they pledge allegiance to the US, does that mean they're saying they will never question anything done by Americans, or anything occurring within the US? Does it mean they are worshipping their nation?
how un-american of you.

I think that after everyone has been saying the "Pledge of Allegiance" countless numbers of time, the word "allegiance" has become one of those rote over-used terms that has had all of it's original meaning sucked out of it. I guess it now means having a certain kind of vague "honor or respect" - the sort of thing that most people do when they pledge allegiance to the "flag".
