Any parent knows, there's a difference between "I regret being caught and called to account" and "I am sorry I did what I did".

I agree candice, they are sorry they got caught, not sorry that they did it.

Figures, another liberal new station. Who are they trying to kid when they say we were not trying to offend anyone. That is the very reason the only new station I listen to is Fox.

Interesting. I will not recite the pledge of allegiance apart from the under God clause, no way I can pledge allegiance to a secular government. To the degree that my country follows God's principles and acknowledges God's authority, I am with her. To the degree she doesn't, I cannot offer allegiance.

 

Side note info:

The Pledge of Allegiance was written in August 1892 by the socialist minister Francis Bellamy (1855-1931). It was originally published in The Youth's Companion on September 8, 1892. Bellamy had hoped that the pledge would be used by citizens in any country.

 

In its original form it read:

 

"I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

 

In 1923, the words, "the Flag of the United States of America" were added. At this time it read:"I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

 

In 1954, in response to the Communist threat of the times, President Eisenhower encouraged Congress to add the words "under God," creating the 31-word pledge we say today. Bellamy's daughter objected to this alteration. Today it reads:

 

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
