yendiQ: Are you offended by the phrase “Under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance? Why or why not?
Sarah Palin: Not on your life. If it was good enough for the founding fathers, its good enough for me and I’ll fight in defense of our Pledge of Allegiance.
Christ on a fucking bike. Aside from the sexism and shallowness involved, you know why the whole series of news stories about Palin's family annoys me?
Because it obscures important shit like this.
I'm sorry, but if you think the Pledge was written by the Founding Fathers (or even in their lifetimes), or that the phrase "under God" was in the original pledge, you are too fucking stupid to hold major office in this country.
Wait, you want a cite? Well, up until a few hours ago, you could find it on the Eagle Forum Alaska blog.
But you can't now.
Unless, you know, you use the fucking Wayback Machine.
