Saw this on a Houston news show website
http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/news/91703_APstate_pledge.html
Look at it and tell me whats wrong?
Maybe I am just paranoid, but if they win then I'm writing it on all my stuff.

Have you ever heard the saying "Don’t mess with Texas?" It is true! This foolish father has succeeded in one thing, makes sure his child gets a daily beating on the play ground! We are talking about the home state of Corn-feed, southern Baptist Cowboys! We are talking about the land of 3 sports, High School Football, hunting, and College Football! We are talking about a state where musicians sing about putting footwear in the anal orifice of Terrorism worldwide! You know what my football coach said when we asked him about not being able to pray before big games? “@#$% that, men!! We are going to pray, and nothing is going to stop us!!!!!” Of all the State to bring up this kind of suit, why Texas? In California, people don’t get away with that! Do not be shocked to find out this man has been hung on an Oak tree. This is Texas, we know how to handle boys like him

Oh please, give me a break! If that where the case, why does he not attack the issue head on? It seems to me, attacking “ Under God” in a State containing the largest concentration of Flaming Fundamentalists wouldn’t be the best way to get your point across. The Educational System of AMERICA needs a fix. Suing bush for making his Daughter say “Under God” is just asked to get flamed by every Political Talk show host and Conservative on the country! All he is doing is trying to get famous fast, and as of late, this is the fastest way!
If he gave one consideration for his Daughters Education, he would have not attacked “under God” like that. Now, instead of learning, she will be fighting off attack from every kids in school, who all overheard there parents talking about it ridiculous this is. If he Cared a lick about Education, then why didn’t he attack the Education directly?
Stop making excuses for this liberal agenda, that is all it is, an agenda. Nothing more. Something for the ACLU to make headlines with again.

Tibby I just want you to know.... RIGHT ON BROTHER!!!!
I am a Texan born and raised. I know exactly how you feel. There is a certin amount of pride that comes with that title. A deep heritage most states can't match. Now I know alot of it is from my upbringing. Altho I am not a "True" southener I consider myself to be one, considering most of my origins are from the deep south (even though most of those are Cherokee). I was raised with a sense of duty before God and my country. Hence my carrer choice of the Air Force. How many others have that honor bestowed on them? I serve so that others may bash me and my fellow servicemen by refusing to say a pledge we hold so dear. Unfortunatly that is the way it is becoming. I can easily get off on a rant right now, but I will spare you all. I am sure you can figure out where I stand on this issue.
Ok now as far as "In God we trust" can people walk away from God anymore than they have already? I am quite happy being part of a nation that has the cajones to have that on its currency. So with all that said....
%^&@ the Liberals.....!!!!!
Bless you all,
Jim
p.s. In God I Trust

I hear you, I’m not born a Texan either! My parents and both fro mthe Deep South, and I’m an Okinawa by birth
But with all the time I’ve lived in Texas, and after being in other places, there is no other place I’d rather be!
