Did anyone see the opening to the U.S. Open Golf Tournament?

NBC TWICE had a group of school children reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and edited it so that the phrase "under God, indivisible" was omitted.

Can't wait to hear the NBC's new version of the National Anthem.

The original "Pledge of Allegiance" until the 1950s did not have the "Under God" reference and - this is the good part - the Pledge was created by a Socialist minister - I mean full Socialist - commie pinko. Heck, before WW2 and Hitler made the salute unpopular - American's said the Pledge in the "Roman" manner - out stretched hand directed at the flag aka the Nazi salute (the old Roman Republic salute).

To all of you offering the excuse that NBC was just saying it the way it used to be said, would you be making the same argument if the kids were shown standing there giving the Nazi salute while saying it, just like it used to be done?

That's a stupid comparison. When did kids in this country ever give the Nazi salute?

All that happened was that the pledge was recited the way it was written, not the way it was changed by the cold warriors.

Do you ever take the time to read what's posted?

From Godwinson:"Heck, before WW2 and Hitler made the salute unpopular - American's said the Pledge in the "Roman" manner - out stretched hand directed at the flag aka the Nazi salute (the old Roman Republic salute)."

That's the same time period. So, if you want to go back to "the way it was", you'd have no problem going back to "Roman style"?

Because someone says something doesn't mean I accept it as being true. I'd like to see some data.

If it's true, you'd have no problem going back to "the way it was", with the kids standing there with the Nazi salute?

You don't want it "the way it was", you want it the way you want it.

Since it's not true your post is pointless.

I will revise my last post. There was a short-lived "Bellamy salute" that some students used that resembled the Nazi salute. It was changed to the hand over heart version in 1942 for obvious reasons.

Now, would I like to return to the earlier version? No. As a matter of principle I'd like to see the pledge abandoned altogether. I'm surprised the opponents of Socialism and Big Government don't agree with me.

No surprise here.

Then just say it and quit the BS argument about "the way it used to be".

That is the way it used to be. Somehow back then, without loyalty oaths or the praising of a mythical deity, the country managed to thrive, unlike today.
