[Why should I care what an illegal alien has to say about the Pledge of Allegiance?]

Because they might become a community organizer and then get elected pResident and finally produce their LFBC 3 years later...

Oh wait, I went all tinfoil there...

I’m sure Barack is 100% truthful and honest.

O.K. gotta go have a late lunch with the Easter Bunny.

“Actually it has its roots in socialism, which is why I never participate in the pledge.”

...From its inception, in 1892, the Pledge has been a slavish ritual of devotion to the state, wholly inappropriate for a free people.

It was written by Francis Bellamy, a Christian Socialist pushed out of his post as a Baptist minister for delivering pulpit-pounding sermons on such topics as “Jesus the Socialist.”

Bellamy was devoted to the ideas of his more-famous cousin Edward Bellamy, author of the 1888 utopian novel Looking Backward. Looking Backward describes the future United States as a regimented worker’s paradise where everyone has equal incomes, and men are drafted into the country’s “industrial army” at the age of 21, serving in the jobs assigned them by the state.

Bellamy’s novel was extremely popular, selling more copies than other any 19th century American novel except Uncle Tom’s Cabin.

Bellamy’s book inspired a movement of “Nationalist Clubs,” whose members campaigned for a government takeover of the economy. A few years before he wrote the Pledge of Allegiance, Francis Bellamy became a founding member of Boston’s first Nationalist Club...

Let's fact check this, unlike the mainstream media:

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America,

It's red, white, and blue. That's three colors, not one. None are denoted as supreme.

and to the Republic for which it stands,

Republic from the Merriam-Webster dictionary: A government having a chief of state who is not a monarch and who in modern times is usually a president. (Not specifying white people or any particular race)

"Standing" is not white supremacist. All races can stand.

one Nation under God,

One Nation (not specifying any particular race) under God (still not specifying any particular race).

indivisible,

NOT DIVIDED into races.

with Liberty and Justice for All.

Still applying to ALL citizens, not just white people.

Because it’s nice when the enemies of our country come right out and introduce themselves.
