Well now they have made it a law that the schools must conduct pledge of allegence at schools in Missouri and Illinois. Of course they don't require the students to say it.

How about making a loyalty oath required for adults when they report to work each morning?

With unemployment rising week to week that would not be adequate to their needs. They're working on one that can be transmitted by each adult from their home regardless their employment status, state of health or disability, and that's mutilingual. You'll be able to push a key on your telephone to activate a tape which plays each phrase one at a time and won't proceed until you've correctly keyed the acknowledgement of the phrase. This will allow for the future oathing requirements to be made more stringent as paranoia rises through required repetitions throughout each day. There will be a toll charge allowed similar to the charge for information only calls in place in most areas already. It'll work very smoothly so that each person's oath will not unduly burden them.

Love it. Maybe add it at the airport security walk through just as frosting on the cake.

"But we are tourists from Denmark why should we swear loyalty to the US?"

No skin off my nose lady. You want on the plane or do you want to walk?

The news this morning said Virginia schools will be required to post "In God We Trust" in all schools starting today.

I wonder how many books or computers could have been purchased with the money used for this?

The news (NPR) stated a group called Family Christian _____ (can't remember) was behind it.

Maybe the group will pay for all the signs?
Or, maybe there will be signs that say
"Pepsi says: In God We Trust."

So much for separation of church and state in Virginia.

aposter, I agree. Did the state budget deficit suddenly disappear so that there's "mad money" to fight this in court?

There will be a corporate war over sponsering loyalty oaths. Watch out, if you drink the wrong thing....

They'll put it on whiskey bottles, and oaths will be sworn in bars across the country with each tip of a glass.

Yes then they will suer the liqupr industry in such a way that an indiviudal loses their rights and the states pockets the money for anti liquorBS which turns out to be balancing the budget of some banana boat regime running kentucky or arkansas
