Charlie Daniels on Red Skeltons The Pledge of Allegiance

[thalontor]

under god was added during the red scare, or the communist scare to denote that the US was different then the communists, who were seen as godless and evil.

Wow! So profound because the meaning and importance of our pledge is so true.

When Red Skelton was a boy the words "under God" were not part of the pledge. Listen CLOSELY to the last few sentences. These words were added officially on June 14, 1954 (Flag Day). I remember learning the change when I was in grade school.

It is a darn shame that "under God" is left out. Cause America is the best country by God's grace. "One nation, UNDER GOD, with liberty and justice for all."
