Quote:1. Those words were added in the 50's not part of the original pledge. As we are supposed to be a secular nation and establishing no religion adding a reference to one or more really isn't right but w/e.

 

2. Some people disrespect our flag by flying it along side the traitor's flag of the rebellion. 

 

3. There are many people in this country that actively hate this country and by extension it's flag by wanting to secede and make their own country. 

 

You have shown no disdain for points 2 or 3 in the past. You do it now because it gives a point of attack against your enemies the lefties.

 

It has everything to do with nationalistic political correctness. It's really not that big of a deal but it is 100% PC to you to not disrespect the flag. And here's a hint for you all the people who claim to hate political correctness when really they just want a license to be jerks in the face of it. it's not always a bad thing to be politically correct. 

 

boudreaumw, do we really need to go through this?  That's a whole other topic and a whole other thread.  If you want to discuss it, I'm open to it.  I was simply making a point to our foreign friend as well as basically ignoring TAM's rhetoric.

 

So now it's not PC, it's "nationalistic political correctness"?  Is there some new term for that?
