Could Someone Please Teach Him to Respect Our Flag ?
@Monkey Boy, your comment about 1954 and the Pledge of Allegiance
In 1954, in response to the Communist threat of the times, President Eisenhower encouraged Congress to add the words "under God," creating the 31-word pledge we say today. Today it reads:
"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
Section 4 of the Flag Code states:
The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag: "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
Respect should be rendered by standing at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart.
When not in uniform men should remove any non-religious headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart.
Persons in uniform should remain silent, face the flag, and render the military salute."
That is the rest of the story Monkey Boy!
Maybe one of you atheists could teach Hussein Obama the proper stance, hand over your heart, and RESPECT to the American flag ? :)
Just a thought! Have a nice day!!!
