Been playing out in the Hampton Union and Portsmouth Herald. Slow news month....

[Russell Kanning]

we were talking about this sort of thing the other day .... it seems anything connected to government wants you to pledge allegiance to the US

[Puke]

Good for him.
The pledge should start "I pledge no allegiance to any man or king."

[PowerPenguin]

If it came to that, wouldn't a pledge at all be completely irrelevant? 8-)

Heroic!  Got any links?

[dalebert]

Maybe he'd be a good FTL interview.

A statement of ones principles is a good reminder of where you stand. To outright pledge no allegiance leaves no doubt as to where you stand. Without self-agrandizing, a pledge to one's own moral code could be worth iterating.

Is the problem with him the lack of pledge (which I understand and side with him)? Or disrespect for protocol?
