Ted, What other fascist precepts do you share with your neocon brethren? Yeah, I'm a fascist, Ted, for pointing out your love of Europe. By the way, here's one of your "heroes," Baghdad Jim, in action: McDermott leads pledge in House, omits 'under God' news.yahoo.com Thu Apr 29, 6:52 AM ET Jim Brunner and Alex Fryer, Seattle Times staff reporters WASHINGTON — U.S. Rep. Jim McDermott turned a routine recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance into a political flap this week when he omitted the words "under God" while leading the House of Representatives in the pledge. McDermott, D-Seattle, said he recited the pledge before Tuesday's House session the way he had learned it as a child in Illinois, before the words "under God" were added, and that he meant no offense. When he came to "under God," McDermott paused while the rest of the House said the words and then continued on with the pledge. "That's how I've always said it," McDermott said yesterday. "I make my pledge to my country and that's the end of it."
