Hello again. Shoveling out my inbox this morning produced this crazy quilt of
extreme right-wing updates. Enjoy ...

My dear friend Culbreath

'Gordon: I have re-written the Pledge of Allegiance (and I can assure you that this re-write was NOT written by a card-carrying Communist, as was the original):

'I salute the Flag of the United States of America, and pledge allegiance to the Republic for which it stands, a Nation uniquely founded on the sacred and profound principle of the Sovereignty of the Individual, with Liberty and Justice for all.'

Can't you just picture grade-school children asking their teacher or parent, 'Daddy, what's Individual Sovereignty?'

P.S. This re-write is held to be in full accord with the philosophical principles expressed in Jefferson's final draft of the Declaration of Independence, the words of which were substantially (my opinion) altered by the Committee before final adoption. Jefferson was philosophically far ahead of the other Founders, with the possible exception of Ben Franklin.
