Wouldn't have been so bad if he hadn't made such a big deal out of it. Fitting that he got God in but couldn't manage "indivisible". Especially after he said it was great to do just because it drives liberals crazy. Way to bring a divided country together.

Since he probably didn't read the bill, he should have read up on the pledge. What a dickhead. Should have got Rosie to sing the national anthem. Good find.

That's not the way it was written, it is "One nation, invisible . . ." according to the little girl I heard saying it.

He acknowledges that in the video, but somehow suggests that the new way is the right way. HE LOVES GOD, GOD DAMN IT!

Hey, maybe it wasn't a mistake at all. Maybe he doesn't think we are indivisible. Rick Perry doesn't.

Alas, John, I suspect you're right. God Love Rick Perry. May all his dreams come true.

1954, Huh. I didn't know that. So, it took 180ish years to put it in, and only what, 30ish years to take it back out again? So, was America a Godless place bound straight for the bowls of Hell prior to the inclusion of "under God", in 1954?

I'm gonna have to sleep on that one.

G'night!

No it was not a Godless place but remember that the Founders and Framers had had enough of the Church of England. My Dad had enough of them as well, that was why he followed John Wesley and emigrated to Canada. The C of E could be pretty high handed, visit Colonial Williamsburg and take the tour. Back then you were compelled to attend Service or be found flat on you back at near death's door as your excuse. If they were not happy with your reason for not attending you spent time in the stocks - outdoors, summer or winter, day or night.

I figured that was the main reason for them being against a "State religion" but also for letting each worship as they please.

But if it is to be "Under God" then whose God?

It got stuck in to set America apart from and presumably above the "godless" Soviet Union.

Should have just taken out "indivisible" when they did it. Adding the one surely led to losing the other.

BTW folks "invisible" was not a typo, that was how she recited it.
