NBC's pledge of allegiance edit causes stir

[Biggsly]

*ahem* I believe the proper term is "televisions of color" or "chromatic american televisions."

Now you have done it. You are going to start a whole new butthurt.

I think it needs to be pointed out (or reiterated) that they also left out "indivisible." If that's left out, you might as well not say "with liberty and justice for all" and then just not even bother with the Pledge at all.

Ay this and Ay that.what gives them the right!

Why is "under God" in the pledge anyway? Doesn't that violate our rights to freedom of/from religion?

I bet NBC is being run by a bunch of Islamic Mexicans.

where is the "freedom from religion" in the founding documents?

Um...1st Amendment...

The history of the Pledge of Allegiance is quite interesting as poopgiggle has already pointed out.

Um...1st Amendment...

Yeah I didn't even want to get into the bizarre word games that the "1st Amendment means freedom OF religion, not freedom FROM religion" people play.
