So I ran across this story today:

Text of the Pledge and student's revision

Associated Press - September 27th, 2007 2:24 PM ET

Text of Pledge of Allegiance:

"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."

A revised version by members of the Student Workers group, which they 
plan to recite in place of the traditional pledge:

"I pledge allegiance to the flag and my constitutional rights with which 
it comes. And to the diversity, in which our nation stands, one nation, 
part of 1 planet, with liberty, freedom, choice and justice for all".



WTF is this about? Please tell me this is a joke. What seems to be 
missing here?

God, America, indivisibility, Republic? None of these things are 
mentioned in the "revised" version.

And when did the flag come with constitutional rights? As far as I know, 
the flag represents the Republic of America, not constitutional rights. 
These kids really need to get a grip on reality and figure out what is 
going on. What is really scary is these kids are the future of America.

So what's next, they want to change the National Anthem too?
