Do you know all the words to the Pledge of Allegiance?

Question

I just saw a part of Super Size Me the other day, and it showed footage of these people out front of the white house, and he asked them to say the pledge of allegiance- THEY DID NOT KNOW IT!!! Then he asked them to sing the McDonald's Big Mac theme song, and they all sang it flawlessly. What the hell??

And WHY if everyone always says how our country is going to hell, don't they do something about it. Make it happen. sheesh.

Answer 1

Yes, and I have for over 50 years.

I also know the words to the National Anthem, the Preamble to the Constitution and the Gettysburg Address. As well as a few other interesting documents. Like excerpts from Hitler, "first we must locate and confiscate all privately owned firearms", he was successful. The liberals in the US have been working on this since 1968. And how about a bit from the Communist Doctrine, "From each according to his abilities, and to each according to his needs". If that sounds like welfare, that's because it is.

I applaud your question but please don't allow it to exist in a vacuum.

And I agree, What the hell??
