Excellent adult behavior, perhaps he'll grow up and want to emulate you.

No it's because he is being a little creep. Didn't I already express that earlier?

You think the kid is a creep for not reciting the pledge of allegiance? LOL, that's just weird.

Does anyone see the irony in the fact that Francis Bellamy, the author of the Pledge of Allegiance, was a socialist? Yep, Not a REAL American

That's what it is? An attention getter?

I find it eternally amusing that the most vocal "defenders" of the Pledge seem to be hard core right wingers.

And isn't it interesting that it was written by a socialist.

Truth is certainly stranger than fiction.

Actually, it was disloyalty to country that got America started. Pledging allegience to a country vs a constitution is anti-American.

How impressive.

And un-newsworthy.

Actually, conservative constitutionalists are vehemently anti-allegiance pledge as well.

Where did you get the idea that socialism and nationalism were polar opposites?

"We need more young people like this, willing to stand up for something!"

As long as they are youngsters parroting the liberal ideology of their gay activist, liberal parents . Other kids should sit down and shut up and their parents put through the liberal shredder for "exploiting" their kids that way.
