LOL, I find it funny how Mclean is over here saying without this country you would not have free speech, but in the same sentence, denouncing free speech. You also say we need more people who are not affraid to be politically incorrect, well technically, not participating in the pledge would be considered politically incorrect. Aside from all that, I don't know about you, but the whole pledge of allegance seems like something communist countries would do. Ya know, those evil commies! First they start controlling your mind, then they control your wallet. Mclean your a DAMN COMMIE BASTARD!
