My Take on the Pledge of Allegiance.
If it was up to me it would be reworded.
I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Democracy for which it stands, one Nation for the People, by the People, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Gee, Amber. This nation was never, isn't and will never be a
democracy.
It has been, is and will always be a
Republic.
The only historic democracy that was, was Ancient Athens. And that only lasted a little while until everybody figured out how to weasel money from the treasury. Now, take the Roman Republic, that lasted a few centuries longer. Until Roman citizens refused to defend it and the mercenary legions turned on their Roman masters.
Dweezle.
