I'm a school bus driver and I attended a meeting of my local school board a few months ago. I was totally surprised when they kicked it off with the pledge of allegiance. I hadn't done it since middle school and I couldn't even remember which hand you're supposed to put over your heart.

It's fucked up. I would proudly pledge allegiance to the fucking Constitution instead.

I wouldn't. Yeah it's a pretty great document all things considered, but it still has it's flaws. Also it took over 200 years to get it to sort of good. Remember the U.S. Constitution still allows slavery as a punishment for a crime, I'd never pledge allegiance to that.
