Byrd and his Merry Band of Dumbshit Demagogues: The Pledge of Allegiance was not...repeat, NOT ruled unconstitutional by the 9th Court of Appeals. Requiring school students to recite said Pledge was ruled to be unconstitutional. So, Senator Moron, the Court will not come to arrest you (although I sorely wish it could find something to arrest you for...if only there were such a thing a Criminal Stupidity, you'd be in line for a Class I felony charge)...at least, not yet.... Go ahead and recite it to your hear's content. Put it in big bold letters at the top of your semi-annual mailings that you waste taxpayer money on. But to answer bluke, who seems equally as devoid of reading skills as is the Good Senator, The Declaration of Independence is safe...so long as you don't require schoolchildren to recite it every moring before they start the real work of Corporate Droid Indoctrination. jb4 "I remember Harry S.

This is already pretty humorous -- considering that the JW's have already fought (and won) when schools required students to say the Pledge of Allegience (PoA) - something to do with religious freedom. Now, apparently this case merely extends it (slightly) so that students can't be required to stand and listen to the PoA.
