Congress Up In Arms Over Pledge Ruling
from the one-nation,-led-by-idiots dept.
The House and Senate, sniffing an issue sure to be a slam-dunk with voters, and happy for anything that diverts attention from the need to deal with terrorist threats or reign in the fraudulent excesses of corporate contributors, are falling all over themselves to denounce yesterday’s federal appeals court ruling declaring the Pledge of Allegiance unconstitutional. I guess it’s indicative of how far outside the mainstream my views actually are, but this just lowers my opinion of our elected leaders, something I never think is going to be possible, but somehow always turns out to be.
