They are upset because the pledge of allegiance is being broadcasted in foreign languages? I thought the Right loved the pledge and wanted it said all over the place? Man, these people are messed up.

5. My two oldest children know the pledge in English and Spanish |
|
because each day over the announcements it is recited in both languages. I think it is FABULOUS.
Juro fidelidad a la bandera de los Estado Unidos de América, y a la república que symboliza, una nación, bajo Dios, indivisible, con libertad y justicia para todos.

"The Pledge of Allegiance must always be printed in a 13.5-point Times Roman font."
"The Pledge of Allegiance must never be printed on pastel-colored paper."
"The Pledge of Allegiance must always be prominantly displayed during trout season."
"The Pledge of Allegiance must not be recited in an autombile at a speed grater than 55 miles per hour, or 65 miles per hour on rural highways."
"The Pledge of Allegiance must never be employed as device to repel gay space aliens."

*sigh* I love my country - I can't stand my LANGUAGE (English), but why should that make me unpatriotic? :crazy:

10. Holy shit, here's the Republican mindset in a nutshell! |
|
"This is America, and we got soldiers at war," said 15-year-old Patrick Linton. "When you're saying the Pledge in a different language which nobody understands, that's not OK."
Since nobody understands Spanish or German, every time you recite the pledge in one of these languages, one of our brave soldiers dies.
STOP THIS COUNTRY, I WANT TO GET OFF™.

12. The Real Republican Mindset is That It's a Bigger Outrage |
|
That we're saying the pledge in another language than it is that our kids don't KNOW any other languages.
