19. Why should this thing be said at all?
I was born here. Forcing me to take an oath of fealty is absurd, particularly since the thing is so full of lies anyways.

I pledge allegiance to the United State of America
and to the Republic for which is stands (does bush represent me? hell no!), one nation (tell that to those who think texas is better or that New York is better or that Wisconsin is better etc), under god (what god? whose god? which god?), indivisible (um, this country is right now more divided than it has been in 25 years), with liberty and justice for all (so patently absurd and such a total lie that I don't even know where to start).

I love this country but I think it is truly screwed up right now and I will not swear an oath on it until the Constitution once again is the law of the land and that is going to take a long time.
