ER's Alex Kingston likens the Romans to American, shocked that the pledge is said in schools.

I've never seen an episode of ER much less heard of this typically-self absorbed liberal jerkette. Apparently this lying twittess never actually reads American papers because there are plenty of them, probably the majority, slamming Bush and the war on a daily basis. When I read copies of the two most popular Twin Cities papers, I have to search hard for columns or opinions supporting Bush. Most of the columnists and editorialists are Krugman clones especially the Minneapolis (Red)Star Tribune. But actually telling the truth gets in the way of a good story for these would-be leftist martyrs-liars.

They should be allowed to choose whether or not to say it. (the Pledge).

Well, at least she got this part right.

And all this from the gal who played that whore Moll Flanders on PBS. What an authority.
