I vote for #3. After seeing the can I have no problem with it. Your efforts are silly and wasted energy.

Actually, I will register YOUR vote as "foolishly jumping to conclusions without sufficient information."

If you will read more carefully, you will see that I posted:

- the press release from Dr Pepper/Seven Up, Inc. and
- two articles posted by OTHER FReepers.
The extent of MY editorial input was:

So what do YOU think?

Should we:
1 - FReep Dr Pepper/Seven Up, Inc. for being "God-less" scum,
2 - Give them a pass for being "insensitive" money-grubbers, or
3 - Add this e-mail campaign to our collection of "Urban Legends?"
FWIW, I also vote for #3, but that you for validating the point of my post:
"Look before you FReep." ;)

I agree with your interpretation. They only used three words from the Pledge. I was subject to many hysterical emails on this, and it sounded like they used the whole pledge only omitting "God".

After having seen it, I think the hysterical ones owe us all an apology. The intent of Dr.P. is obvious. Given the Left's antipathy to the Pledge, it was courageous of them to use it at all! I'm surprised the ACLU hasn't sued them!
