HOW TO GET GOD OUT OF THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE

One nation, under law..yeah, that's the ticket. Wish I had thought of that 
before my progeny attended the consumer culture incubation system.--Pete

SAM SMITH - Now that a federal appeals court has ruled that the words
"under God" are fine for the pledge of allegiance, we once more find
ourselves without the support of any of the three branches of the federal
government.

What to do?

Baltimore Orioles fans figured this out long ago. When they sing the
national anthem, it suddenly turns into a team fight song as the words, "O
say does that. . ." are modified by a stadium full of fans yelling "O" in
honor of their team. We can do something similar with the pledge. When it
comes to the words "under God," just cry out, "under law." It might just
catch on.

Palin Tells Dobson That 'Prayer Warriors' Should Ask God to Intervene in U.S. Election for GOP

Awesome!

In an interview posted online Wednesday, Sarah Palin told Dr. James Dobson of "Focus on the Family" that she is confident God will do "the right thing for America" on Nov. 4.

...

She also thanked her supporters -- including Dobson, who said he and his wife were asking "for God’s intervention" on election day -- for their prayers of support.

"It is that intercession that is so needed," she said. "And so greatly appreciated. And I can feel it too, Dr. Dobson. I can feel the power of prayer, and that strength that is provided through our prayer warriors across this nation. And I so appreciate it."

From this we can deduce that:

  1. Sarah Palin believes God personally chooses our Presidents and Vice Presidents.
  2. Sarah Palin believes that God should choose her as Vice President.
  3. Sarah Palin believes that without God's intervention she will lose.
  4. AlterNet is a nonprofit organization and does not make political endorsements. The opinions expressed by its writers are their own.
